Wicked Jump Shot
HeadFlyer Brewing

 

A - Pours out a translucent copper orange body, white head, short on the pour and fading to a thin cap and a fatter rim, extensive lacing.

S - Pine and somewhat undefined citrus. The primary note is orange, with lemon and grapefruit notes. There's a bit of menthol tingle on the nose.

T - More malt-forward than the nose, citrus with an undercurrent of toasty biscuits, a grass and pine hop note, and a strong pith undertow in the finish.

M - Moderate weight, solid carbonation, dry finish.

O - Not a revelation, but a well-built Pale that hits the right notes.

On tap at the brewery. White head with lace. Hazy golden orange.

Pine and citrus. Orange and mango. Fairly juicy for a pale ale. Lots of flavor here. One of the better head flyer beers.
