12 oz can from Mills liquor Store in Annapolis, MD The ale poured a hazy light amber with a small white head and lacing. The aroma of grapefruit and pine resin was evident. The flavors were hoppy but muted. (The ale may be too cold) The ale has a medium body and soft carbonation.

This is a new brewer for me. Starts solid, with herbal and medicinal hops taking the lead in the nose. Flavoring is similar, with some earthy hops, giving it a bit of an EIPA vibe. Texture and resin soakage are strengths. Decent effort; I would try other stuff from these folks.

Not to be confused with the Annapolis IPA out of Canada with the same name, this one is contract brewed for the Annapolis Beer Company by the reliable Key Brewing in Dundalk MD. Onto the beer it self:
Fairly large white head sits atop the clear pale gold body and leaves good lacing. The back of the can claims a WCIPA pedigree and it's not hard to argue against that. There is a degree of tropical fruit poking through in the aroma but the focus is more on citrus and pine. The taste is pretty similar along with a resinous finish. My personal tastes would be for a more bitter edge. Good carbonation with a medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, doesn't push many new buttons but it is tasty and worth trying if you find it close by.
