Citrus aroma overtakes you upon opening. This one is sticky in the glass with plenty of lacing. Nice and sweet up front. A little bit of caramel. This gives way to piney hops at the end. A little high on the alcohol content which affects the mouth feel. Overall this a good every day drinker though!

A - Pours a clear golden-orange color with a frothy finger of white head atop. The head fades down at a normal pace leaving behind some nice lacing.
S - Aroma is a mix of sweet caramel malts and citrus and piney hops. There is also just a bit of bready malts in the background.
T - Starts off with a mix of sweet caramel malts and some citrus hops with a bit of bitterness. Through the middle, the bitterness gets a bit stronger and the piney hops start to come through alongside some stronger citrus hops. The finish is a bit stronger on the piney hops and resin with some nice bitterness and some sweet caramel malts that linger.
M - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a nice dry mouthfeel from the bitterness.
D - Very drinkable. Very nice hop malt balance with a solid hop profile. Very smooth and drinkable, even with a slightly high abv.
