This beer looks like an old school IPA. It pours a clear amber color. There's a 3 finger white head to the beer. The head retention is decent, as is the lacing on the glass.
The nose really has an old school aroma to it. I get a decent amount of pine in the aroma from the hops.
The flavor has a lot of pine in it from the hops, very much like an old school IPA, and the flavor does linger. That being said, there's also a decent malt bill here, that produces a biscuit sweetness that cuts the pine hops a bit. Not totally, but probably more than they should for a more traditional IPA.
The body is pretty good. The hops do cling a bit, but not too long.
This is a good beer. I'd like a more pine hop flavor that punches you in the face, but, this is a more approachable traditional IPA for those who aren't total hop heads.
Also, I do like the can art of this crawler. That's what really made me buy it. The buck walking through the pine trees really hit home for me.
