Chill hazed light gold. Citrusy and light piney hop aroma and flavor; definitely leans West Coast. Good balance with light to moderate bitterness. Medium to light bodied with a nice dry bitter finish.

Nice floral hop aroma on a moderately hazy body. Taste is on a slightly bitter pale ale flavor with a floral lean. Nice, need a second try.

12 oz can from Total Wine and More in Short Pump, VA The ale poured a hazy light amber with a white frothy head and lacing. The aroma of pale malts, citrus, mostly grapefruit, is detected. The flavors are nicely balanced with hops offering grapefruit and hints of orange zest. The ale has a medium body and average carbonation.


Note: The can has an ABV of 6.6% listed

On-tap at Billsburg Brewery, Jamestown, VA

A: The beer is hazy yellow in color and has hints of amber hues. It poured with a quarter finger high frothy white head that has very good retention properties and consistently left a short head covering the surface and lots of lacing running down the sides of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of orange and grapefruit citrus are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and also has hints of herbal and piney hops. There is a light to moderate amount of bitterness.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is nice and citrusy as well as being very easy to drink.

Serving type: on-tap
