Sweet and piney tropical hoppy, a touch of maltiness, and a prominent white wine grape and Nelson-dank nose on this one! Yum! Taste follows with a super-clean and sweet, piney-dank, Nelson forward hoppy bitter finish. Whoa! This is better than I was expecting! This finishes a touch soft IMO...I like my westies to have a snappier/crispier finish, but this is really well done! I wish I got more cans!

Can pour into a taster glass.
So typical Fidens. Rich yellow / gold color, and a dense moist lasting head. Nose and taste are juicy, hoppy, and balanced. Mouthfeel is moderate to thick and lively on the tongue.
