Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, a light creamy sweetness. Hops bring a decent and juicy peppy citrus. Orange, mandarin, some blood orange and a touch of pink grapefruit. Mild pine well intertwined with a touch of citric peel. A touch of nibbly hop spice rounds things off nicely. Really liked the intensity and attack of the hop fruits on this one.
