Packaged on March 6, 2025 - imbibed on March 22, 2025 - poured from a pint can into my Dogfish Head shaped pint glass.

Golden corn body, nearly clear, with a fist of dense ivory merengue. Rich, ropy lacing; superior retention.

Dank and fruity with hints of strawberry, grapefruit, tangerine, and marijuana in the nose. Hints of lemon-lime soda and cedar as well.

Bright, citrus-kissed (lemon-lime) palate entry with a lean pale malt base. Balanced with low but persistent bitterness. Fairly dry finish with hints of pine and lingering kiwi, club soda, lemongrass, and lime.

Zippy, medium-light body - crisp and refreshing.

Would pair well with pad thai or fish tacos (for example), though it is decent on its own.

Light gold in hue. Fluffy white head is respectable at 2 inches, slowly settles to a film. Good retention with slight lacing.
An initial pop of green alfalfa really screams freshness. Then comes a nice mix of pine needle, weed, and a slight undertone of onion. Enticing nose.
Flavor is more pine resin and mild green notes of pine needle, juniper berry, a hint of green bud and onion with a smooth drying bitterness.
Mouthfeel is light to medium heft, decent carbonation, and a mellow bitter close.

quite pale gold. Very loose white head of semi-short duration. No lacing. Extremely clear/ zero haze. Pine- dominated smell and taste. Pretty thin body. 3.75 overall because I feel generous today and I like Madewest, but IMO this is not one of their better collaborations.
