Hear the sirens? Be ready for a cyclone of piney-orange flavor from Simcoe & Bergamot hops. Like the first Wednesday of the month, a Minnesota tradition.

16oz can. Stamp on bottom lip reads 'CANNED 26JUN23'.
Clear, deep gold colored body. Two fingers of white head, which sticks around. Leaves behind thin rings of lacing.
Aroma is rather faint but orange citrus and pine stand out. Underneath is a toasted malt base.
Taste is also muted but provides citrus and pine, along with the woody and earthy flavors. Weak exit in the aftertaste. Slight metallic note.
Thinner than medium mouth feel. Slightly drying finish. Very good carbonation.
Wet and juicy but does not explode with nose nor flavor. Cool name,

16oz can into a nucleated pint glass.
L: Pours lightly yeasted honey amber w a thin rounded off white head w ok retention to a continuous thick skin, low carbo, scattered thick lacing w some sheeting.
S: Citrus, candied malts, piney, lightly floral, a hint of honey.
T: Bold pine resin, grapefruit zest, lightly toasted caramelized malts, orange & orange zest, honey, a hint of orange marmalade, a suggestion of brown bread, a trace of strong black tea, moderately sweet but very resinous top to bottom, fruity overall.
F: Smooth medium-bodied w a med-thick sharp bite in the long lingering finish. It is pretty drying and soft overall.
O: This lovely beer reminds me of an English-style IPA but with intensely resinous American hops. A smooth feel and zesty piney flavors. Noticeably dynamic start to finish. Feel may be different in a regular pint glass NTL it is very good in its style.
