From a 16oz can, dated 12/15/17. Served in a spiegelau.
Pours a lightly hazed pale straw-gold with two-plus fingers of loose, soapy head. Retention is very good and leaves fat gobs of slippery lacing.
Nose is citrus and resiny herbs. A little sweet, a little sharp and pungent. Not strong, but nice.
Taste is a pleasant blend of oily, bitter herbs and eastern spices, grapefruit rinds, toast and spruce tips - nothing dominates, everything is in balance. Starts out grassy and dry, gets juicier as it warms and opens up, nice lingering light bitterness at the end.
Feel is just a little sticky and oily, on the lighter side of medium bodied and well carbonated.
Overall, this is a very nice beer with an exceptionally fortuitous combining of citra and azacca hops. Not an outrageous showoff of a beer by any means but I'll know to pick up a four-pack if I see it again.

Poured into a 16 ounce Nordic pint glass canned on 12/15/17. Pours a slightly hazy orange with a 2 plus finger sticky white head that leaves loads of thick webs of lace behind.
Smell guava, apricot, tangerine, pineapple, and grapefruit rind.
Taste follows tropical front to back with a little bit of bitter grapefruit in the finish, but really well balanced.
Mouthfeel is pretty darn large for only 6%ABV, gentle carbonation, not really dry, but a little sticky from pungent fresh hops, and drinks very easy, but loaded with flavor for its ABV.
Overall this is outstanding....... I have always believed they were a underrated and under the radar brewery and this is sublime.
