Pours a clear golden color with a white head. Smell. Has citrus malt and pine. Taste is fruity with citrus and grapefruit ,followed by pine and sweet malts . Mouth feel is semi bitter and hoppy with malts in finish.

This beer pours a clear amber gold with an average head. The aroma is piney, with some grapefruit and lemon pith. The flavor is malty upfront, with caramel and brown bread notes, then some resin and pine, and a touch of citrus peel. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with full carbonation. Overall as tasty and balanced beer, with good finishing bitterness.

$10 Crowler with no date on it
Look is golden-amber, almost no head but some pretty lacing. Smells slick with pine tart. I taste pine, juniper, wet freshly cut grass, honey, metallic alcohol, tangerine rind, pepper. Too much alcohol shows up, it's too slick from overhopping, and it's also a little undercarbonated... but easy drinking otherwise
Much hops - Tastes 'green'

L-Dark tan with bronze hues.
S-A lot of pine...grungy...a hint of catty notes
T-Pine, ganja, tobacco, toffee like malt...blackberries....
F-Medium to full body. Pours from crowler with light carbonation and comes across as almost flat.. Not the first time this has been an issue with crowlers from here.
O-There are some positives and negatives to this. I like the grungy dank notes but it borders on catty to me. The flat body is an issue. Overpriced as $10 a crowler.
