A zesty and zippy little west coast Pale Ale. Hopped with select Nelson and a bit of Citra for notes of southwest citrus fruit, white grapes from the vine and wild blueberry jam

I am sampling a cellar temp 16 oz can poured into a snifter. No date stamp on the can or label.
The beer pours a clear light golden color with a fluffy bleached white head foaming up almost 3 cm. This foam slowly fades leaving some windowpane lattice and remains as a spotty surface covering of the beer. Resting in the glass the beer is a little hazy but certainly not murky.
The aroma does feature some of the pine sap and bitey rind that I would expect from "West Coast" beers.
The first sip reveals a medium to lighter body with very fine and sort of sharp carbonation. Texture is smooth and the beer drinks very easy on the physical traits.
Flavor is briefly biscuity malt and then some grapefruit rind and also some general citrus notes. This tastes more hazy pale ale to me, as the citrus lingers after each sip. Never any hint of the lower abv with bite or warming, which seems suitable.
Overall, the beer is enjoyable and well made, although a little more clarity and bitterness would make it really feel west coast (or olde school) pale ale to this palate.

Undated can into pint glass. Pours a clear light gold color with a brief off-white head. Good lacing. Initial impression is spicy citrus, white wine, and a touch of pine. Mouthfeel is clean, dry, and slightly astringent. Finish is grassy citrus with very little residual sweetness. Overall, a refreshing change from your typical sweet and soft NEIPA.
