The beer pours a light and foamy white head that dissipates fairly quickly. The beer itself is a hazy orange and yellow. It looks nice.

The smell is delicious. It has a bitter pine note with pineapple with grapefruit notes.

The taste is good. It has a more malty taste than the smell does. The main notes tend to be a bitter pine hop note and grapefruit with pineapple at the end.

The feel is good. It has a medium body with a thin but not watery texture. The carbonation has a tingling feel but not much. It has a dry finish.

Overall, a pretty tasty pale ale worth getting and drinking extremely fresh.

 

 

1 pint can poured into tulip.

Pours a hazy golden yellow with half a finger of sudsy white head that leaves a bit of scattered lace as it recedes.

Smells of pineapple, green melon, pink grapefruit, orange slices, rising dough, wet stone and some piney green hops,

Tastes of bready caramel malt, more juicy citrus and exotic tropical fruit, melon, orange, guava and pineapple, flinty earthy mineral notes and more pleasantly dank hoppy goodness.

Feels light and peppy. Medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. Finishes on the bitter side.

Verdict: Recommended. A nice light pale ale for a warm spring night.

Canned 2023/10/17
Pours a foamy fizzy 1/2 finger head with fair retention, very little lacing, hazy cloudy pale color

Nose loads of tropical fruit, papaya up front, guava, mango, some citrus, cantaloupe melon like, pineapple, even some coconut, light malt base with hint of water softening minerals

Taste brings citrus out front, clementine tangelo like, quickly into tropical papaya, mango, a touch of eucalyptus oil, some melon notes, soft doughy flaked protein mash and hint of water softening mineral, a bit of pithy notes, light malt but seems watery, drier finish, hint of bitterness

Mouth feels thin and watery and not as soft creamy as I expected, med to lower carb

Overall mixed on this, the nose was great, taste was so-so at best, and it was super watery and thin, I think they started with something bigger and tried to lighten it up and ended up with something that was too thin and light in the end.

 

Picked-up a four-pack of cans recently at Curtis Liquors in Cohasset for about eighteen dollars. My sixtieth brew from these guys. Solid LAB, a bit expensive.
