This is one of my favorite american Pale Ales. I am biased as it is also local to me. It is exciting to live close to a place that makes such a good beer.
The beauty of this beer is really the last sip. As a hop head, the "bitter end" of the beer leaves a lasting impression that made me want to go back out and get more.
The nice part about this beer is that I am able to bring this home in mass quantities, knowing that most people will enjoy it. It is balanced and sweet enough that even my wife would drink it. The smell of hops on the nose makes me salivate as I try to figure out what type I am smelling.
Overall, this is a great beer!

Pours a foggy orange, nice eggshell head, but it fades quickly but leaves some spotty lacing. Snot machine says orange rind, some caramel. Crisp, nicely carbonated nice bitter finish. Good beer.

"Best by 8/22/22"; drank 5/14/22 @ the Yarchives.
Cloudy dull orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a nice, noisy eggshell head; nice lace.
Mild orange citrus, dry wheat & faint caramel notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
The flavor followed the nose; mild and enjoyable.

Hitting those darker than average amber and orange strides in a pale ale, 2/5" white head, some spotty lacing. Aroma hit some good C hop notes, maybe even Simcoe.
Taste definitely delivered on the bitter end (both front and back end) while pairing it with some lemongrass like notes and toasted pale malts. Slight bit of caramel, unsweetened.
Good stuff with a solid +50 ibu impact that isn't tiresome or one dimensional.
