500ml bottle served in a pint glass. I don't see a date or any indication of what hop this is, but I found an article talking about Chuckanut bottling it for the first time; the picture looked like my bottle, the date on the article is pretty recent, and it talks about it being the "Trident Specialized Blend" version, so I'm going to go with it. Bought this at Elizabeth Station a couple weeks ago.

Pours bright clear yellow-gold with a medium to large head that fades fairly quickly to a sheetlike coating that covers the beer and the sides of the glass. Smell is grassy and clean, a little yeast and some sweet grain.

Taste is nicely bitter, quite bitter, background of a little honeysuckle sweetness. Almost a lemon sour to it.

Mouthfeel is dry, light, clean, really nice. Overall, I'm digging this beer.

Bottle from Uptown Market.

A clear darker yellow with a dense white head with excellent retention and lacing. The nose is super fruity. Bright and floral with passionfruit, citrus, a little pineapple, as well as some lychee and melon, this is a marvelous hop showcase. That this is carried on a clean lager base with light fruitiness to complement the hops is an added bonus. The palate opens mildly bitter and plenty fruity. Bright, mildly tart passionfruit mixed in with peach. Mango. Melon and citrus, mildly key lime like. The mid palate has mildly floral notes with honey and a little orange blossom. Drying, bitter and ridiculously clean on the finish, this beer is medium light in body and moderately carbonated. Excellent.
