Pounder can into a tulip appears hazy golden yellow with a white cap.
Smell is pretty mild for a double dry hopped offering. Some herbal aspect and grassy but not bright or impressive at all.
Taste has pith, rind and grapefruit bitterness with a straw grain backing to contrast. It even feels lemony at times.
Medium body, modest carbonation with an overall almost creamy feel to it. Not bad but not worth the price either.

Poors a cloudy golden yellow. A nice lace adheres to the glass. A definite grapefruit taste. Worthy of a taste.

Pours an opaque light-orange with a finger of white foam. Head retention is okay, but not great. Aroma is orange, clementine, papaya, and banana. Lots of citrus, but more-so focused on domestics. Biscuit and bread malts underneath. Flavor profile is orange, clementine, papaya, mango, and banana with biscuit and bread malts underneath. Mouth feel is chalky and grainy, with a medium-thick consistency. Overall, lots of hop qualities, but it loses a bit in terms of feel. Otherwise, well rounded.
Served in a 12oz snifter from a 16oz can.
