Draught. Dry, bitter, mango, light body not malty. Quite nice.

Hazy pale yellow with a dense and puffy white head that retains as a sort of cappuccino froth.
Mild citruses and a faintly dank spice are softened by biscuit making for a very nice pairing.
It's got a nice zip to it and a balanced bitterness that keeps me coming back, at times hinting at cologne.
The medium body is nicely frothy and finishes semi-dry.

This is probably the most refreshing beer that I have ever had. And it is my 494th craft beer review.
Sean out did himself on this one. It's extremely smooth, very tasty, and disappears before you know its gone.
So you better have two of them on hand so you can realize what you almost missed when the first went so fast. Please pass the word around on this one, Its Summer in a can.
Thank you Sean Lawson

Poured from a 16 oz can, dated 4/11/22 into the pint glass
A - Hazy light yellow pastel color, Lasting white froth, with excellent lacing.
S - Light grain notes, with hops delivering a citrus, lemongrass, and pine
T - Here the grain, hop mashup is a bit more tropical, with some pineapple, and lemon zest.
M - Lite in body, carbonation keeps things crisp, lovely dry finish
O - A very good, pale ale. Consistant with this current take on the style. And for a good cause
