Pours a medium brown amber color with decent head. Smells like pine needles and wood. Very flavorful for a pale ale. Tastes malty with a good amount of bitterness attached. This beer gives a good mouthful with a flavorful aftertaste.

Pours a cloudy amber, aroma is citrus and pine. Flavor is astringent citrus hop, and soapy. Not my favorite beer but drinkable.

On tap at Ginger Man. Cloudy gold-amber beer with a sour apple, fresh tangy scent (like a mild Stone Pale). Fresh mown grass with malt-forward cereal (but not sweet). Can smell the hops, but taste is mostly malty. Clean fresh, lingering cereal is pleasant- would order again.

Deep copper color...thick, fluffy head with decent lacing. Floral, somewhat spicy aroma. Front is light and fruity...just a hint of crispness in the mouthfeel, with good body. Spicy hop profile in the back that’s bold, yet not overpowering. Finish has a lingering hop quality. A very well balanced pale ale...extremely flavorful, with just enough of a hop bite.
