Poured a nice copper/amber color with generous white head that stayed a while. Aroma was of citrusy hops. Flavor was a blend of floral, citrusy, piney hops. Pleasant bitterness to it. Mouthfeel is smooth. Decent lacing on glass. I enjoyed.

Thanks brent. Pours a copper amber with a thin frothy light yellow head. Looks kind of still. The nose was a little grassy, some spicyness, some citrus, earthy, sweet bready malt, smells a little less than fresh. The flavor is spicy, grassy, kind of dry, sweet bready malty, alcohol shows. The mouthfeel is dry and a little biting. Pretty good pale ale.

12oz Bottle. Pours an amber color with a small off white head. A nice aroma of citrus and sweet malt. Has a pleasant slightly sweet smokey taste with a very smooth finish.

On Tap, pours amber/golden with an off white head. Aroma is malty with some citrus notes. Taste is hoppy with citrus and bitter notes. Finishes hoppy, definitely good for fans of IPA’s.
