On tap at the Mule.
Appearance - Hazy golden brew, with a couple of fingers of white head. Good staying power and lots of lacing.
Smell - A bit of orange and grapefruit with trace elements of pine. A bit of pineapple backing things up. Nice tropical medley.
Taste - Solid malt backbone, pine and some citrus. Orange and grapefruit.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied, a little prickly. Semi dry finish.
Overall - Good brew, but not my favorite from Fairweather.

Pours a very nice clear bright golden colour with solid two fingers of tight bubbly white head - laces nicely.
Floral and slightly dank on the nose - citrus, a touch of pine and bready malt.
Palate follows with slightly sweet bready malt, floral and leafy hops with a relatively soft/restrained bitterness - citrus and again a mild dank note.
Smooth and easy drinking, medium mouthfeel with moderate carbonation and a clean finish.
Sept 10/22 Second try - misjudged the first - this is great!
