A: Pours a super murky medium golden apricot in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and moderate amounts of apricot + burnt orange colored highlights, The beer has a two finger tall sudsy foamy white head that slowly reduces to a large patch of thin film covering the entire surface of the beer and a medium thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of citrus/grapefruit, citrus/orange, and pine resinous hops over the top of moderate aromas of biscuit malts and a light amount of caramel sweetness.
T: Upfront there are moderate to strong flavors of biscuit + caramel malts with a moderate amount of caramel sweetness. That is followed by moderate to strong flavors of slightly juicy citrus/grapefruit, citrus/orange, and pine resinous hops which impart a light amount of bitterness which lingers slightly leaving a light to moderate flavor of citrus + herbal hoppiness.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Slightly crisp withe a slightly fluffy mid-body and a hint of dryness in in the finish,
O: Enjoyable and easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a pleasant hop presence, Worth grabbing again.
