Bottle thanks to a trade! Pours a clear amber gold with a near white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has has notes of musty pine and resin with an earthy grain backing. Flavor is similar with wet pine and a bit of resin backed by a earthy bread note.

A - Pours a hazy golden-orange with a finger of frothy off-white head. The head fades down at a normal pace leaving behind some nice lacing. S - Aroma is a mix of citrus, grapefruit, and pine hops with some sweet caramel and biscuit malts and a touch of booze. T - Starts off with a mix of grapefruit, tropical, orange, and citrus hops with some bitterness and sweet caramel malts. Through the middle, some pine and grassy hops come through with some more resiny bitterness and some biscuit malts. The finish is a mix of grapefruit and pine hops, bitterness, and sweet caramel and biscuit malts with a hint of booze. M - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a dry and bitter finish. D - Very drinkable. Good strong hop profile with nice bitterness throughout.

651mL thanks to ygtbsm94. Pours a clear golden with miniscule white foam. No lace really. Nose is a bit cheesy. Taste is sweeter, quite resinous. Oilier palate. Nice. Quite bitter. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
