Gold and orange with a touch of cloudiness, this sat with a short head and left plenty of lace.
Citrus and grapefruit are strong in the smell, with a touch of earthy hops and malt in the background. Pine pops up in the taste but light and balanced across malt. The mouthfeel is appropriately light without being thin, and this is highly drinkable.
I do not find too many american pales that I want more of, usually they leave me wanting either something more mellow or a full on IPA. This is an exception, great blend.

22oz bottle into a tulip
A: Pours a very clear light amber color with two fingers of fluffy white head. Good retention and lacing.
S: The aroma starts out with a touch citrusy hops that are quickly overtaken by earthy and somewhat dank hops. I get a bit of pine as well. A moderate amount of caramel sweetness is also evident.
T: Dank and earthy hops are now front and center, stronger than any other flavor. I also get a bit of spearmint in the hop flavor. Bready malts are way in the background, with very little sweetness. Low bitterness.
M: Medium to light thickness for the style with light carbonation.
O: I'm not a huge fan of the dank hops, though Lagunitas obviously is. The flavor is very clean and crisp and I definitely enjoy it, but I'd prefer a different hop profile.
