Had at the Pacific City brewpub on the Perfect Storm release day. Thanks to ramnuts for taking me out there!

From notes.

This was brewed with 100% Centennial hops.

A: Pours a clear, pilsner-like straw color. Some lacing, with a very light film on top.

S: Citrusy (lemon rind, a hint of orange) with a light floral and green tea note.

T: Lemony, orangey up front. Some leafy green tea-like flavors in the mid-taste, with an undercurrent of biscuit malt throughout. A fairly clean finish for what seems (at first) to be an IPA hop bill.

M: Light-bodied, high carbonation that cleans up the lingering bitterness pretty well.

D: Pretty good! I wasn't absolutely blown away, but I liked it.

Brewed as a final farewell by Jason Schoneman, this is basically an IPA hop bill (100% Centennials) with a pale ale malt bill.

Served into an imperial pint at the brewpub, C-YA! is a chill hazed dark gold with a small, off-white head leaving very light lace.

Smell is strong, pungent hops, very resinous pine notes. Wow, fresh.

Taste doesn't match the nose regarding the hop flavor, which comes through more so as bitterness, suggesting I was mostly smelling dry hops, although there's still plenty of resinous pine flavor. The malt is a bit bready, but pretty clean.

Mouthfeel has an oily slickness, crisp though, and medium light.

Drinkability is pretty good, it was a bit too bitter for my taste at first, but as my palate adjusted, I really enjoyed it.
