4.03/5  rDev +3.6%
look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4
Bright orange with crusty, lumpy, lace-white froth. 4.25
Lots of florals, touch of must, and surprising amount of toast. 3.75
Touch of peach then grapey Sauternes, lychee, underripe tangerine, and pine needles. 4.25
Orange slurpee end + bitter lime rind linger.
Halfway to medium, oily, round. 3.75

Oily beast - gets all the perfume from Cascade and NS wine there is to be had. At 5.5% and 47 IBUs, this risks being in between APA and IPA, but it feels like the former except maybe in body, which is thin for all the flavour. Great bang for your ABV, though it gets harsh: loses the aroma but not the bitterness and goes toasty as it warms. Why aren't more people talking about Northbound? 4
