Rotator #15 - 473 ml can from the brewery in Victoria - canned Sept 23,2024.
Crystal clear copper to amber pour with a scant half finger of fine eggshell white head (on a gentle pour).
Nose is bursting with citrus (grapefruit, orange peel), ripe pineapple with piney resin and grassy aromas on a strong malt backbone.
Sweet and sticky on the palate with caramel malt giving way to grapefruit, over ripe pineapple, and pine resin. Grassy notes as per the aroma, slightly earthy bitterness.
Full sticky mouthfeel - sweet but not cloying - a little boozy heat and a lingering bitterness.
I really liked #14, but #15 might be better.

Poured from a 473ml can.
A nice looking pour with a very dank hop nose.
A pretty good West Coast Double, Smooth all the way with a good bitter finish.
The 9.1 ABV is hidden well.
The Comet hops are perfect in this puppy.
