Poured into an opaque mug but while pouring the beer had an odd pale lemonade color.
Nose is insane, like strawberry bubble gum or something, super vibrant.
Taste fell well short of thee nose for me, thin, watery,, bitter,, and medicinal. Not going to finish the can
Feel was OK, a little watery.
Overall this is my first real flop from this brewer. Obviously the hop variety didn't work for me at all on this one, but the whole beer felt significantly less "together" than what I've come to expect from these.folks

Stoked are some of my favorite hoppy pales in the Bay Area. Belma is great.
Light hazy color, head stuck around.
Sharp citrusy aroma that really pops.
Taste follows aroma with a crackery undertone.
Medium to high carbonation that fit well.
Great light drinking.

hastag stoked!

I had this on tap at the brewery.

Pours a slight hazy color, nice clouding.

Zesty citrus notes, with some fruit punch in the back. Easy drinking.

On tap at local place. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed others in the Stoked! line up so I’m curious to see how this stacks. Haven’t had much from Belma hops so consider me piqued.
L: really great looking for a 5.4% pale ale. Full on hazy bright yellow appearance with a finger of a dense white cap. Heaps of residual lacing coats the glass. Look-wise, it looks fantastic.
S: grapefruit, lemon and some earthy presence on the nose with hints of black pepper. Not much going on, but not bad.
T: the hop profile is different. Grainy undertones with flavors of strawberry, lemon and grapefruit on the finish. Not juicy nor overly hoppy, just plain and simple. Hop profile isn’t my favorite but it isn’t bad either.
F : light in body and medium in weight. Smooth feel with moderate carbonation. Nice feel for a beer of this stature.
O: I’m enjoying it, especially on this warm day. I have to say, probably my least favorite from the series, undoubtedly due to the hop choice, but it is a worthy player in the line up. I’m glad to try, cheers!
