Poured from a 473ml can. 60 IBU's
A pretty good West Coast version, very resinous piney hit from the Chinook hops, Simcoe are there also but the Chinook really takes over.

473ml can - made with Chinook and Simcoe hops.

This beer pours a clear, medium copper amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly ecru head, which leaves some decent frilly lace around the glass as it rather lazily subsides.

It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, a stoney flintiness, and some leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, some orange, red grapefruit, and lemon citrus peel, a damp minerality, and more earthy, herbal, and resinous piney hoppiness.

The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing getting in the way of a good ol' time at this particular point in the party. It finishes off-dry, the malt and mixed citrus frooty notes the stars of the lingering soiree.

Overall - this comes across as a sensibly rendered version of the style, with a judicious amount of citrus and forest floor detritus flavours that bring it all together. And sure, I'm enjoying a brew whose tagline is 'Beer Worth Freezin' For', when we're finally back to the plus side temperature-wise around here. Anyways, definitely worth giving 'er a go, IMHO.
