Part of the Throwback 12pk. Bottled in late January (5-6 weeks) as far as I can tell.
Clear gold, with moderate ivory head.
Smell is crackery malt, and fresh,bright spicy+floral+ fruity noble hop aroma.
Taste is light toasted grain, a little bread crust, coriander, black pepper, and a very slight fruity+floral element. Moderate bitterness.
Feel is light-medium, smooth, with moderate, very,very fine, sharp carbonation tingle, that gives a little black pepper bite at the end.
Overall , quite good , and better than I remember it. Seems crisper, and fresher-tasting.

Poured from 12 oz bottle into pint glass. Thin white head recedes quickly, light golden color, plenty of carbonation. Aroma is hop forward with background malt. Mouthfeel is light and crisp. Flavors nice blend of pine, citrus, and herbal hops with malt sweetness.
** Just purchased this beer January 2023, so I guess it must be "un-retired" **
