Poured from 22oz bomber into a tulip. No packaging date on the bottle.

Appearance: light yellow-orange hue with a tiny touch of haze. Head is a thick finger of super frothy white foam with a good lace; it looks cool!

Smell: light, bright hop aroma; it's got a definite lemony character to me, and some floral notes. There's a bit of a sweetish background and, to some, this might seem a little bit soapy. But I think it's not too bad.

Taste: sweet, soft malt up front, with more of those lightly floral, slightly lemony hops at the end. It reminds me of a nice, soft blanket; this is the rare example of a good cold-weather pale ale. But that's really what it tastes like to me -- a pale ale, not an IPA.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: I like this beer. I could see myself having this as a go-to beer when visiting the brewery, although it's probably not remarkable enough to seek out on its own.

22oz bottle (no date) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a very hazy (but murky)straw yellow color with 1/2 inch of white head that had low-moderate retention and very low lacing.

Hop forward in the nose, soft pineapple mostly, with some faint staleness. no real grain.

Similar on the tongue, with the hops being a wee bit brighter, but still some "old" aspects.

The body was light-medium, had good carb, and had a semi-dry finish.

Drinkability was fine, I killed the 22 with no issues, but wasn't left wanting more.

Overall, a nice, solid beer with no real faults. It wasn't an attention grabber, but was pleasant enough.
