biscuit malt aroma with some some sunny dry hops, light all around. clear watery gold, bare minimum head. i agree with glkaiser here, it’s very light and somewhat lacking. Small amounts of shortbread dough, not much else to notice.

Pours a golden color with a thin layer of foam. Light aroma of peach and citrus hops. The taste is balanced with light malt and some fruity esters. It comes across as a bit too thin and lacking some flavor, even for 5.1% ABV. But, it’s a fine beer to crack after a hike up a mountain.

Pale gold pour with a middling head. Aroma is a mixture of malt and hop with a bit of a floral scent thrown in for good measure. Pretty decently hopped for an APA, but the flavor is a bit muddy and there is definite room for improvement.
