Moor’s Session Ale packs a light but flavorful balance of green papaya and a hint of key lime with a smooth lemongrass finish.

Hazy orange pour with a one finger white head. Citrus nose. The mouthfeel is silky. I didn't find brewer's notes but the texture made me wonder is this is an oat-based brew. Flavors lean toward the sweet side--pineapple, mandarin orange and peach. A refreshing, crushable ale.

I should have taken a picture of the can to post before I crushed it. Oh well.
It's a pretty solid "session Ale".
Pale ale, whatever you want to call it, it's pretty good, but nothing world class.

Undated can; drank 3/7/24 @ the Yarchives.
See-through orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a big, noisy white head; strong, frothy tree-rung lacing remained.
Pineapple & mild peach notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Fruit punch with peach accents on the palate; mild pine bite on the finish.
Fruity but with some nice ballast; I enjoyed this!

Light gold in color with a fingernail of light beige on top. Heavy, soapy lacing. Not much aroma, but there’s some juicy fruit with lemon and lime. I’m tasting lime and lemon skittles. The mouth is very light and approachable.

I've heard some good things about this new-ish Chicago brewery -- took a chance with an APA.
Poured into my Imperial Nonic.
L -- Hazy gold with a tight, white head that holds up well. Final pour from the can is very murky.
S -- Pine resin and light stone fruit -- peach, nose.
T -- More stone fruit with sweetish peach/apricot and piny bitterness back. Vaguest biscuit malt making up the backbone and keeping the hop bitterness in check, but letting it be the star of the show. Spicy, bitter finish, but not palate-wrecking.
F -- Mouthfeel is soft to lightly dry with a light-medium body.
O -- A nice, hoppy APA after a month away from anything beer. Resin becomes more prominent with warming, but still not palate-wrecking. The final pour murkiness didn't amp-up any harshness, probably even helped to smooth out the body. Can conditioned?

Hazy pale gold, thin layer of foam drippy rings of lacing. Citrisy aroma and taste, more assertive C hops. Orange and grapefruit. Light bodied and easy drinking. More of a succesful IPA than their branded IPA, this is a nice beer that would be a repeat buy.
