Poured from 16oz can into my 8th Wonder chalice. There doesn't appear to be a legible date stamped on the can.
Appearance: medium yellow-golden hue with plenty of haze and a finger of frothy ivory foam atop.
Smell: moderately sweet malt with a rather orange rind-heavy citrus aroma. It's okay, but a bit one-note, and not super juicy.
Taste: moderate sweetness with that bitter citrus rind from the aroma, but with the added flavor of passionfruit, which gives this beer a nicely tropical, slightly juicy vibe. I dig it. There's a bit of hop burn here, but it's still interesting and tasty.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.
Overall: I happen to like the flavor combinations here, but there is a sharp edge of rindey bitterness and hop burn that not everyone is going to be a fan of. Still, it works for me.
