Clear, bold amber color, ample layer of ivory froth, leaving some lacing.
In the nose: Big citrus and pine aromatics, fine and fruity, with sweet malt keeping time and balance. Caramel apple mixed with grapefruit and orange.
In the mouth: Big slap of bitterness on the palate, nice and hoppy, lip-smackingly delicious. Citrus and pine lead the flavors, with malt mixing it up just behind. Smooth, tasty, medium-bodied, refreshing. A good ol', zesty pale ale, and you can drink it.

I didnt expect much, but really ended up enjoying this one. Pours a coppery color, nothing tremendous about the smell, but the taste reminded of what I love, and sometimes miss, about IPAs. The bitterness/pitney was just right. A welcome change from the hazy-heavy IPAs brewed so often today.

Fresh bottle courtesy of JohnnyHops.
Appearance: Amber clear, out of bottle tbh. In the redwoods in spring. Appropriate situation for a pale ale.
Smell: Wheat, German herbal hops.
Taste: Malty wheaty base flavor. Bread. Slightly sweet. Little grassy bittering. .
Fairly viscous + thick. Like a Hefeweizen. Pleasant weak bitter bite.
Overall: Old school ipa/pale ale. Reminds me of something you’d find in Portland, Oregon in the early 2000’s from Bridgeport, Widmer, or McMenamin’s.
Definitely get a German influence that is consistent with much of 3F lineup.
