From a 16oz can, canned on 05/26/2025

In a crappy hotel plastic cup. The beer has a beautiful murky looking golden color. There's a frothy looking white colored head that has good retention. I am liking the sticky lacing on the glass.
The aroma is dominated by the hops. I am getting a ton of grass in the nose. I am getting a good cantaloupe hit on the nose. Slightly earthy smelling.
The flavor is full on melon. I am getting a huge hit of cantaloupe and honeydew. There's a nice grassy and earthy hint to the flavor. The bitterness is there, but low.
The body is so damn smooth. I am getting a very soft feeling in my throat.
Damn. This beer is so delicious.

Very pale light straw, looks and feels thick. lots of citrus and some grassiness in the aroma and taste. Not much bitterness. Good but nothing special from OH.

16oz can dated 6/6/22.

Pours cloudy yellow with a half inch head of white fluff. Moderate retention and lacing. Pungently green in the nose with dank weed, candied spruce, and lemon-lime rubbed with mint. Medium bodied with a soft mouthfeel. Slightly thinnish. Pine, dried tangerine, sugar-dusted mango, and pear syrup on the palate. Finishes with zero malt or bitterness and lingering zesty citrus.
