Thanks to snaotheus for putting this in my hands.
She pours a slightly hazy golden color that has just a hint of light amber. A fluffy white head develops just shy of two fingers, but quickly settles to a thin film. There is some scattered clumpy lacing.
I probably should’ve started with the nose because immediately upon popping the can my sinuses were filled with a glorious, very green, alfalfa meets tropical notes. Quite stunning. When that pop of green alfalfa steps aside, I get hints of pineapple, lime zest, wet grass, and a delicate berry note.
Taste is its own show. Initially bitter, presenting pine, alfalfa and grass but then making way for some berry, a genteel lime pithiness, and closes with a dry generally earthy tropical bitterness.
Mouthfeel is medium with mild carb.
Solid pale ale.
Thanks Ryan!

16oz can of the 2024 edition, purchased at Community Pint, in Spokane, WA. No canning date.
Poured into a 16oz glass, this was a hazy, yellowish Amber color, with a decent sized, creamy looking, bone-white head. Lots of lace.
Upon pouring, the nose is reminiscent of very sweet tropical fruit juice.
The taste is very reminiscent of the smell, except that there is considerably more bitterness in the taste. The bitterness has a great fruity and piney taste to it, and seems to accompany rather than follow the tropical fruit notes noted in the nose. The taste ends on a dry note.
Oily, resiny mouth feel.
This is a pretty good hoppy pale ale. I'm not sure how fresh it is at this point since there is no date, but I would drink it again.

16oz can served in a half pint shaker glass. Don't see a date. Bought it at Full Throttle Bottles six days ago.
Pours slightly hazy whitish amber, smallish head, moderate carbonation. Smell is tropical juice, floral and sweet.
Taste is much more on the bitter end of the spectrum than I would have expected from the smell. Pine and fruit skin, still has the floral sweetness but dominated by the bitterness.
Mouthfeel is light, smooth, dry. Overall, this is quite good.
