355ml can poured into a teku glass.

Hazy golden color with some orange shade and some sediment, it tops with thick creamy white head that well retains with good retention before slowly subsiding to some bubble sheet atop and leaving slight lacing.

In a nose, fruity, citrus, tropical, apricot, lemon, pine, resin, some pungent, some coriander spice, bready malt, and malty sweetness.

The taste kicks off with its hoppy goodness of tropical and citrus. Then comes pine, some dank, and resin. The adding of lime and coriander also adds its crisp and spice while malt is in the supporting with its breadiness and sweetness. Hop comes back at the end providing citrus and mild bitterness.

Medium body with rather smooth mouthfeel and moderate carbonation, the feeling is rather crisp and refreshing with a typical dry finish. Very well balance APA, a showcase of good hop profile that supports by good malt bill.

Pale hazy gold, four finger head.
Quite a bitter pale, but balances with a fruit medley, all sorts of apricots, peach mango, and a bitter finish
Nicely carbonated, medium weight in line with 6.0% not say 5..
Top beer, but I have to say, will Pirate Life brew a lager?
