On tap at Hess Brewing Company in San Diego, CA.
Pours a clear dark orange with a foamy orange-tan head that settles to a film on top of the beer. Foamy rings of lace line the glass on the drink down. Smell is of citrus fruit, citrus zest, malt, and alcohol. Taste is much the same with an alcohol kick and a high amount of hop bitterness on the palate after each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer with a great aroma and some tasty flavors.
