Misc.: Canned on July 3, 2018

Had enjoyed pretty much everything I’d tried from Burgeon, including the three ones I rated on Beer Advocate at 4.30, 4.25 and 4.10. Was psyched to pick this one up on a trip to Bine & Vine, seeing it was canned the day before. The mentioned hops were Simcoe and Citra, so kind of hard to go wrong.

Poured a mostly hazy, bright straw color with 2-to-3 fingers of rocky white head. Lots of bubbles coming up from the bottom of the glass at a pretty fast pace. World-class uneven foamy lacing. Perfect retention. (Sight - 4.75)

Smelled big Citra in the nose. Also lime, melon, passion fruit, pine, grapefruit peel, grass and green leaf. Got Simcoe from the can, along with pine, resin, earthy hay, raw barley, peach and more grapefruit. (Smell - 3.75)

Taste was a little better than the nose. Clean and crisp, a bit like a hoppy pilsner. Got Citra, passion fruit, melon, lime, lingering spicy Simcoe, grapefruit peel, pine, grass and pilsner malt. (Taste - 3.75)

Light body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Long, clean, crisp finish. (Feel - 4.25)

This was a pretty good pale ale, but not anything I would need to chase again down later. (Overall - 3.75)
