Pours bright and clear golden yellow with a fizzy head of foam.
Subtle citrus and hop resin notes.
Citrusy and a bit of green/dank hop resin.
Light-bodied, medium-high carbonation, crisp, clean, crushable.
Overall, a seriously crushable brew!

This is great!
Pours a clear golden in color with a bright and "herbal" nose. The flavor is crisp and slightly dank, with a clean finish. Delicious. Yum!!!

Had this on tap at the Sweet Repute party. Amazing beer! Can only hope that this comes around again someday. Very dank, seems like a Centennial hopped beer. Juicy, bready and just plain wonderful!
Not much head by the time it came to me, but I don't mind. It's the flavor I'm concerned about.
Really not much of a nose that I could tell. But what nose there was, was dank. some say "Cat piss", but I don't like that description.
Taste was amazing! Dank Centennial hops show through, not over the top. Why I think this is probably considered a Pale. Oh so Juicy!
Overall, I just loved this beer! I had 2 on tap, and if we weren't leaving, would probably have had another.
Bravo Founders!
