Clear yellow brew with plenty of foam in the Saxo wine-style glass. Aromatic with canteloupe and pineapple. Light body, almost watery. Very fruity taste with just enough sweetness. Tangy finish. Flavors of melon and grapefruit peel. Lemon finish and more grapefruit juice. Rather bitter aftertaste with pencil shavings. From the 16 oz can purchased at Bottlecraft. Dated 01/06/26.

16oz can (no visible date) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a lightly hazy dark yellow color with an inch of white head that had good retention and light lacing.
Nice hops at the front of the nose, with just a bit of grain in the background. pretty much the same on the tongue, definitely hop forward.
The body was a bit on the light side of medium, had nice bitterness, and a semi-dry finish. Drinkability was good, an easy enough quaff. Overall, a solid and enjoyable brew. Probably worth grabbing if you see it
