They sure don't make 'em like they used to. Forget gigs and terabytes, it's all about them bits! You can keep your 8K OLED Ultra HD, because we're bringing back that 2 color 280x192 pixel resolution. Got cloud? Nope, just crispy 5.25" flops! Put that fiber in the can, we're sending this one via 600 baud modem. If you're feeling this, then this old school West Coast jam is for you! Boldly hopped with CTZ, Cascade, Centennial, Amarillo, and Chinook to bring you the perfect mix of pine, floral, citrus, and some danky notes. Loading... please wait.

Snuck over to Windmill Farms specifically to look for this this and a few other North Park ones (found two). North Park’s email for this one called it “They sure don't make 'em like they used to.

Poured a medium yellow clear color with two fingers of frothy off-white head. Plenty of bubbles coming up from the bottom of the glass. Good spotty lacing. Outstanding retention. (Sight - 4.00)
Smelled pine, lime, grapefruit, tangerine, Columbus, Cascade, Amarillo, peach, hints if black pepper, lemon, dish soap and some Centennial. Even better out of the can with the addition of floral and some earthy malt. (Smell - 4.00)
Tasted woody pine, lime, bitter grapefruit rind, tangerine peel, black pepper, Columbus, Cascade, Amarillo, lemon, citrus pulp and dish soap. (Taste - 4.25)
Medium body. Oily texture. Lively carbonation. Long, bitter, pulpy finish. (Feel - 4.25)
Really liked this overall. Just lovely. (Overall - 4.25)
