The smell of hay, mixed with hundreds of beehives, coming from afar.
A honeycomb; a field of grass; a hammock in a meadow. A summer.
Bitterness that fades from the swallow.
A swallow that opens a window onto a field of pine trees--and breathing that in.
Farmhouse without the farm. House without the house; an apartment, instead.
An industrial finish that mimics the industry of the neighborhood that this beer was made in.

A: The beer is very hazy amber yellow in color. It poured with a finger high frothy white head that settled down, but left a short head covering the surface and lots of lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of cantaloupe, orange, and peach are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and also has some additional notes of pine towards the finish. There is a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is packed with lots of aromas and flavors of hops—the amount you would normally expect from an Imperial IPA, but with the body of an APA.
