On tap.

Medium gold pour with vibrant carbonation and a juicy citrus / tropical fruit aroma. Flavor builds to a juicy, resiny citrus tropical fruit presence with pine bitterness on the back side. Flavor is long lingering on the palate. Medium body and very quaffable. Would definitely buy again, this particular keg is obviously quite fresh.

12oz can canned 5/27/22 into a pint glass.
L: Pours light clear caramel w/a 1" rocky eggshell white head w/cap retention, low carbonation, decent rhythmic banding & lacing.
S: Grassy, light dankness, caramelized malts, light diesel.
T: Mix of citrus fruits, citrus rind, berries, hard candy sweetness, honey, lightly sharp hoppy pine resin, dirty tractor diesel, a suggestion of biscuit, accentuated hips.
F: Slightly voluminous and crisp medium bodied mouthfeel w/a long lingering slightly drying finish.
O: This beer is a little bit dank! Quite hop forward with a sweet middle and a long resinous finish. Rather interesting to find a dank Pale Ale. it's real beer. 4 out of 10 on the Dank-O-Meter with Simcoe & Mosaic being well used here. Tastes great, full flavored and is excellent in it's style.

draught
Medium light amber, with an orange tinge, to the look. Subtle, spiced malt, with a bit of an edge to the aroma, with the slightest tinge of honey dew melon. Biting start to the taste, with a tiny bitter touch, along with a bit of an herbal note.

Purchased as a single can from Kroger for $1.69. Poured into a nonic pint glass.

L - Pure gold, with a yeasty two-finger bright white head.
S - Pineapple, passion fruit, and papaya. A bit of mango in there, as well.
T - Freshly-cut grass sets the scene here with a follow-up of pineapple, pine, and mango. A mellow unripe pear taste coats the mouth, and leaves with a bitter finish. Cheerios form a light malt base, but the hops are definitely the stars here.
F - Clean, full-bodied, and slick. Lots of carbonation.
O - A clean-cut refreshing summer ale for sure. Would love to enjoy this alongside a juicy hamburger and steak fries. Wish there were more malt notes, but I get what it's going for. Will buy again.

Poured from can into pint glass. Little to no head present. Golden in color. Not much negative to say about this beer, however not much to brag on either. Just a good clean beer.

My can foamed up as I opened it, and the pour yielded a big, foamy head that only slowly reduced, and never went all the way away. Light golden color. Clean taste, moderately piney smell, fairly balanced taste, seems good for light summer food. Not sure I would seek it out again, but I wouldn't turn it down if offered.
