Bottle from Brewery Creek, Vancouver; 5.4% ABV
Hazy amber color, with medium sized head. Very nice aroma of malt and hops; the hops are creamy, a bit fruity, delicately resiny. Some toffee too. Solid malt and caramel backbone, with toffee character, and a bold hopping, very resiny and with accent of fresh yellow fruits. Long final.
Another great beer from Deschutes.

3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Hazy orangey-amber colour. The aroma is woody, orangey (mandarins) with a minty, almost bubblegummy sweetness. Those orangey hop notes continue in the palate. Fresh, maybe a bit green, with hints of pine. Malt balance is soft, slightly juicy and very even. Clean, hoppy finish. Fairly full body for the style. Civilized APA, very refined, elegant.
