Clear golden with medium beige head. Sweet fruity aroma with hops and pine. Sweet flavor with hopy and caramel notes. Ends bitter.

Bottle @ J.C.G US Tasting, Pt 3. As sumer ale. Pours slight unclear golden with a small creamy white head and lacings. Nose is fruity hops. Mostly orange/tangerine. Medium and smooth palate. Dry bitter end

Slightly hazy golden amber. Light aroma with grassy (Willamette?) boring hop. Same on the palate - painfully boring and a real buzzkill. It’s well made - you can’t fault the balance or any of that stuff - but it is pretty far from inspirational.

(12oz bottle, courtesy of Mar) Pours a clear pale yellow body with a small white head. Aroma of florals, orange, lemon, and toasted grain. Flavor of florals, grass, citrus, caramel, and biscuit.
