A vigorous pour gives a slow-developing but lasting half-inch of foam sitting on top of a clear gold beer. The nose is typical Lagunitas: loaded with hops, pine-resin-like with a tidge of citrus. Flavor is a good mix of really strong grassy hops, dense, sweet malt, and a fruity yeast character. The "Wild", I assume, implies there's some non-standard yeast like Brett or something, but my taste buds aren't good enough to detect it among the assertive other flavors of this beer. It's still good, though. And warming, by the finish.
