Can: Poured a bright orangey/amber color ale with a nice big foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrus and grapefruit notes with dry caramel notes. Taste is very refreshing with solid floral notes of citrus and grapefruit with limited bitterness and some dry caramel malt notes also perceptible.

A really good pale ale. Cloudy orange color with an average head, the aroma is malty and slightly tart. Pineapple and butterscotch notes, too. The best thing about the flavor is the hops. They’re big. They cold have marketed this thing as an IPA and I’ve had called it a slightly mild but tasty IPA. I really enjoyed this.
