Reviewed on release day so couldn't be fresher. Poured from can into Magnify tulip glass. It pours a turbid, dirty honey color with almost a finger of fluffy, bright white head and soapy lacing. It's an attractive pour. The nose features floral hops, vanilla, lemon peel, and a whiff of grapefruit. The taste is a pleasant combination of grapefruit, lemon, vanilla, tropical fruit, and Citra and Amarillo hops that begin benign but bit at the finish. All of the tastes work really well and none overwhelms. There is no astringency at the finish. This ale is fairly creamy in body and pleasantly carbonated and its 8% ABV is well hidden. Overall, it is simply delightful. It doesn't bite as hard a some others but that's a good thing. Everything about Cast a Long Shadow works.
