(Draught) Pours an amber color with orage highlights and a small white head. Has a hoopy flavor, but not does not have much complexity or balance.

Unmistakeable nose of piney citrus hops, with a hint of caramel malt, slightly biscuity with lots of resiny bitterness from the hops, not overpowering, pretty well balanced and crisp. Decent enough

Draft. Golden with a creamy, lasting head. Aroma is a blend of nutty malt, pine resin and some citrus. The flavor starts with the nutty malt, and moves to the smooth blend of evergreen, citrus and earthy hop for a crisp finish. Light-medium and smooth, with a dry-finishing palate. Beats Sierra Nevada draft anytime.

Tap @ brewery. I think they were trying for a Sierra Nevada-esque ale but failed. Still, not too bad. Aroma had a decent piney, honey scent. Color was a wheat penny copper. Lacing held out throughout the session. I was expecting more, but still not a bad brew overall, In fact, of the three brews I tried at this sitting, this was the best of the bunch.
