473ml can - since BA is now in league with Untappd, I see no problem adding this variation on the original Uptrack entry - I mean, it's now mit haze!
This beer pours a very murky, pale golden straw colour, with three fat-ass fingers of puffy, rocky, and mildly bubbly off-white head, which leaves some patchy soap scum lace around the glass as it evenly dissipates.
It smells of grainy and crackery cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, a further indistinct tropical fruitiness, some damp minerality, and a plain earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, some mixed melon-heavy fruit salad, orange and white grapefruit peel, petrichor, and more leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters.
The carbonation is average in is palate-satisfying frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and mostly smooth, with just a wee bit of hop attitude making minor waves here. It finishes trending dry, the hops continuing to be a welcome lingering concern.
Overall - this is an enjoyable enough mish-mash of styles - the hazy East Coast meets some good old-school West Coast bitterness. I could very well see packing a few of these up the hill like the yeti (?) on the label, to loosen up my body for when I inevitably yard sale it somewhere on the way back down.
