Had this on tap at the brewery.
Appearance: Beautiful orange-gold body, light white head with plenty of lacing in the glass!
Aroma: Piney and spicy hops with some grapefruit and citrus.
Taste/Mouthfeel: Delicious! Hops up front with a nice sweet finish, almost a little too sweet but not enough to be cloying.
Overall: A deliciously crafted ale, lovely colored body, nice and balanced hops and sweetness.
