Matchless - Fresh Bois fresh hop IPL. Trying to decide if it's my last one, and just go to bed early.

16oz can served in a footed pilsner glass. Canned 9/19/2022.

Pours clear light yellow with about a finger and a half of fizzy head, settles to a thick meniscus. Smell muted pine and resin and a little floral sweetness.

Taste is kind of watery. Not terrible, just mild and thin. A little grain, some citrus (leaning towards lemon and flowers), maybe a little honey, a little hit of resinous bitter at the end.

Mouthfeel is very light, thin, and not particularly effervescent. Overall...it's a pretty tasty beer but it's not showcasing the fresh hops that I want it to showcase...
