A: The beer is hazy and a bit pale yellow in color. It poured with a short white head that quickly died down, leaving a thin collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of lime citrus are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has lots of flavors of lime citrus. Only a light amount of bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied, juicy and a bit smooth on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This APA is very easy to drink and prominently features aromas and flavors of Citra hops.

Serving type: can

 

 

 

Really nice APA.- a style I generally don’t enjoy. This has lots of pine, some citrus and it’s resinous. No tropical fruits as described on the can. Not hoppy, the body is light. Excellent beer.

 

 

 

 

I tried this beer at the Farm House restaurant in downtown Burlington, VT. It poured a hazy yellow with white head that left some lace. The scent had tropical fruit notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with citrus start and slight bitter finish. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a solid beer.

 

 

From the growler obtained at the Coop in Hartford, VT, it pours a hazy amber with a modest head. Nicely scented hops in the nose - citrus to my allergy effected nose. Lightly bitter and extremely pleasant flavor in the mouth! Yum!
