Motueka and Citra hops provide a Satsuma zest nose with pleasantly bitter tropical tang and candied apricot on a familiar coastal New Zealand hop flavor undertone. We had to sprinkle The Glow with a little Simcoe and Mosaic for some of that west coast darkness that we love. It's got that Cellarmaker glow!

This Hazy left a lot to be desired. The description of the flavors sounded great, but taste was not there.

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass
A: Pours hazy golden amber with a frothy off white head that settles to a firm layer and leaves a little nice lacing.
S: Bright juicy citrus leads, tropical and stone fruit, a little pine, floral notes, a touch grassy, biscuity faintly bready malt, and caramel sweetness. I'm slowly falling in love with this nose.
T: Bright zesty citrus, lemon lime and tangerine, tropical and stone fruit, passion fruit, mango, peach, apricot, and a hint of pineapple, a little pine, grassy and floral notes, biscuit slightly bready malt, and caramel sweetness.
M: On the lighter side of medium body, moderately lively carbonation.
O: Classic Cellarmaker, showing how much flavor you can pack into a pale ale. I could happily drink this all day, figuratively and literally.

Growler fill from Lúpulo.
Consumed same day.
Looks like cloudy banana juice if thats a thing. Fluffy meringue head.
Smells of banana and pineapples.
Taste less so. Not too complex.
Thin fizzy mouthfeel.
Different. Not bad but not my favorite.
