From the can in a snifter via Bluejacket74---Cheers Dude!
This solid and sessionable brew pours a medium light chill hazed amber with a
nice head of white foam that settles to a thick ring, thin layer, and shows some
excellent lacing. Nose of caramel, grains, citrus notes, and some spicy hop
touches as well. Flavors hit the mark with grapefruit, lemon zest, herbal hops, spicy
hops on the rear, and light honey sweet malt amongst a solid grain bill.
Nice mouth feel; medium teetering on medium light body, coating on the
hops front, medium light carbonation, and a hop laden finish.

Overall---very nice!

Cheers

16 ounce can, no dating that I noticed on the can or label. Big thanks to Pat for this one, much appreciated! Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a somewhat clear dark gold color with about an inch off-white head that stuck around a while. Lots of lacing, too. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like floral and grapefruit/citrusy hops, and caramel/bready malt. Taste is similar to the aroma, but with the addition of some pine and citrus peel flavors. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's smooth, a bit slick and easy to drink with a good amount of carbonation. I thought this was a good overall American Pale Ale, certainly worth picking up if you come across some. Hope to make it to the brewery one day!
