If you like pine and the smell of growing marijuana plants, you will love this beer. Mmmmmmm.

Thanks Frank. This was poured into a becher pint glass. The appearance was a semi-hazy burnt orange to amber color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated at a decent pace. Light stringy lace. The aroma had some orange marmalade sweet sort of rind bitterness educating a light citrus to sweet cracker malt base. The flavor arranged the prior notes together tightly forming a solid balance between sweet and bitter. Aftertaste was sweet malty smooth running into the finish in the same sort of way. The palate was between light and medium bodied with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine. Overall, pretty good APA worthy of having again.

Driftwood Brewery 'Pale Ale' @ 5.0% , this is the 'Old' version served from a 650 ml bottle purchased for $5.25
A-pour is a pale yellow/gold from the bottle to a slightly hazy gold in the glass with a big frothy off-white head leaving a spotty lace along the pint
S-herbal , hoppy , hint of malt sweetness
T-pleasant tasting pale ale , a mild bitterness with a slight dry finish
MF-seems to be a mild carbonation and a mild medium body
Ov-ok beer , good pale ale , no wow factor
prost LampertLand (seek New Growth PA) it's better
