Can from Half Time
Hazy floured lemon in color with a huge frothy white head that makes pouring difficult. Earthy citrus lemon and hints of orange with bits of sweet bread and grass. Over carbonated lightly astringent just ok

Pours a hazy light golden sunshine color with a fresh white head. Smell is citrus and passion fruit. Taste is more floral and juicy with fruits ,grassy herbal notes melon and papaya. A soft mout feel with a super burst of hops at such a low ABV. I could crush these if not for the price.

From the can it pours a hazy yellow color. A large thumb length foam head displays good retention and lacing.
The aromas are citrusy and bright including notes of orange and grapefruit pith. Classic herbal hops aromas evoke pine resin, grass and some dank qualities. Additional aromatic notes of fruity/floral hops, peach and a bready malt base.
The dry palate allows the hops to shine in tandem with the crisp cracker malt backbone. Pithy notes of grapefruit, orange and lemon combine with piney and grassy spices. Balanced flavor profile overall, with neither sweetness or bitterness dominating. The finish is crisp, dry and laden with hops spices.
Medium to light bodied with an emphasis on drinkability. The mouthfeel is crisp while the carbonation is moderate.
One of the most drinkable beers you’ll ever find, it is nothing short of crushable. Delicious!

Solid beer within this style. Has hops of an IPA but is still drinkable as an APA - so a bit more mild in nature. It's a light to medium body with good balance and low ABV.

A: The beer is very hazy to cloudy light yellow in color. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that left a thin patch of bubbles on the surface, a minuscule collar around the edge, and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of gooseberries, pears and stone fruit are present in the nose.
T: The taste is nearly a mirror image to the smell and has a light amount of bitterness.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and very juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer has the level of hop aromas and flavors you would expect from an IPA (or even an IIPA) but has the drinkability of an APA.
Serving type: can

AlexSergio gave me this beer through a trade, many thanks. The beer is a session pale ale, clocking in at 4.2 percent. The beer is 44 degrees and served in a pint glass. The pour on the beer produced a two finger creamily and airy white head. The retention on the head was satisfying. The head dissipated somewhat slowly leaving chunks of lacing on the glass. The color of the beer is SRM 2 a pale straw with a touch of gold hues. The clarity of the beer is hazy.
The aromas in the beer are lemons, oranges, mandarins, grapefruit, crackers, floral esters, a touch of herbal ( not one herb I can pinpoint), and subtle honey note.
The flavors of the beer are lemons, oranges, pineapple, mangos, crackers, floral, grassy, herbal, and a touch of sweetness.
The mouthfeel of the beer is thin and creamy.
The body of the beer is light, medium-plus carbonation, and a light finish.
This is a perfect summer beer to drink. I think the hop profile leans more toward New England.
