Poured from a pint can into a IPA style glass. Amber colored body with a very nice 2 fingered white head that had a decent amount of lacing. Mild aroma of apricots & tangerines. Very well balanced on the first sip, with a bit of citrus flavor, a nice hops bite and clean finish, with only a hint of the powerful abv of 8%. The mouthfeel is pleasant, with a tingle on the tongue. This is my first beer for the Scantic River Brewery but it won't be my last.

Slightly hazy dark yellow color with a huge frothy white head that persists. Bready toasty caramel maltiness with lots of citrus and a hint of grass and pine. Not bad.

16oz can: This one pours a cloudy dark golden color. There is a minimal head and no lacing. An interesting aroma. A few different hops in there, but none of them are really coming to the top. I guess you could describe it as sour citrus and pine. The taste is OK. A bit of bitterness, decent enough body, but just a MEH. Probably won't be picking it up again.

Maybe it's an old bottle? Not great, but better the Budweiser at least
