light creamy head the says at 1/4 inch
strong smell of citrus and pine hops

Overall - a winner here.

16 oz can dated 7/26/17. I had this at the bar in a taster and thought it was fantastic as a dry hopped cloudy session. Brought some home and opened one right away

Pours a very cloudy to opaque pale yellow gold color with a 2 finger head that settles down to a half finger silky smooth layer with complete retention on the sides of the glass. It even left a raised code in the center with a flat top - like a mini devil's tower in my glass. Pure awesome! This is perhaps the only 5 I've given for looks. At this point I'm feeling very positive about this beer ;)

Aroma is fantastically pungent with a dank resinous pine and citrus smell. This is stronger than the taster I had earlier. makes me think they put Idaho7 hops in. The official word is that they put in Vic Secret, Belma, Galaxy, and Citra.

Taste is also very dank up front -- maybe a little too much so in that it overpowers what else may be behind it. Low malt, so a little watery. Not too sweet behind, which is good is my book. Low seltzer - I like more but that's just preference on my part, so no knocks there. Really there is so much flavor in this beer for a session (their words, on the board) it is crazy. The dank hops dominate and stick around until the finish. There is maybe a dull sweet tropical hop flavor behind it but it is hard to pick it out... maybe pineapple.

Mouth feel is very smooth and creamy with flaked grains (I think I remember reading) with no stickiness due to the low malt. Bitterness is a minimum as well.

This is really a gem of a session. I picked up 2 4-packs as I am always in the search for a great low-alcohol, flavorful beer. The flavor they pack in here is impressive. I suspect that since this is such a new beer that it may be a little stronger in the dankness than it would be a few weeks later. I'll report back at that time.
