12oz Bottle
Appearance - The beer pours a hazy amber/orange colour with a large soapy off-white head. I can't make out much carbonation and there is a fair amount of lacing. The head lasted for a few minutes before it started to dissipate.
Smell - hops, grapefruit, caramel, a grassiness
Taste & Mouth - There isn't a whole lot of carbonation and the beer has a slightly watery feel. I can really taste the citrus notes; lots of grapefruit and tangerine mixed with pale malts and light hops. There is also a woody pine flavour that comes in near the end. The beer finishes with a slightly bitter hop aftertaste.
Drink - A decent beer that is highly drinkable/sessionable. It won't knock your socks off - but it's worth a try.

Golden pour with medium sized head. Strong carbonation. Strong pine and pretty one dimensional pale ale, without a lot of malt backbone to give it much body. One of my first craft beers back in college, and overall enjoyed this as a cheap craft. Mediocre at best, but worth trying.
