16oz can dated 5/17/18.

Pours clear gold with a chill haze and a big, fluffy head of white. Retention is decent with plenty of tattered lacework. Lemon with cardamon in the nose. Spicy but not hoppy. On the fuller side of medium bodied with a pillowy but crisp mouthfeel. Lemon zest and spice on the palate with zero malt or sweetness and a firm bitterness. Finishes with a light spiciness and fading lemon.

Tasty beer but I'd never guess the base was an IPA. The body is somewhat fuller from the lactose but could use some help from oats or wheat or even more lactose.

Dark orange in body with white head. Aroma of lemon, passion fruit, grass, pine. Tastes of lemon sorbet, light sour notes, citrus rind, booze. Thick in body with medium carbonation.
