Shine On
BlackStack Brewing

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local beer store located just around the corner. It poured a slightly hazy yellow with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had dank citrus notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright bitter citrus presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.
