This beer is here to take me to a place I've never known. With hops so bright, this can't be right, these thoughts are not my own..

Can from Mongers.
A clear copper with a dense, off-white head with good retention and lacing. The nose is bitter, pungent, piney,grapefruit resin with a soft malt character. The palate opens pungent and resiny with pine, grapefruit pith bitterness, orange essence. The mid-palate has soft malt character, lightly sweet but creamy and delicious. Pungent, resiny on the finish, creamy mouthfeel with lovely hop character. Quite excellent.

smells great! just on the edge of being super malty, though, and leaves a very drying effect on my mouth.

From the can.
A delightful well-rounded pale ale, with pineapple and lemon notes in the back.
I get a hint of smoke on the sip, from a heavy hitting hop profile.

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass
A: Pours golden orange amber with a frothy off white head that settles to a a light layer and laces nicely.
S: Citrus, resinous pine, floral notes, slight grassy herbal notes, and bready malt.
T: Super floral, resinous pine, citrus, grapefruit, lemon, and orange, slight spicy green herbal notes, slightly toasty bready malt, and just a touch of sweetness on a fairly dry finish.
M: Medium body, moderate carbonation.
O: This beer is like a time machine that takes you back at least 20 years to those classic American hopped pales. Could easily get lost in today's super fruity hazy pale ale game, but everything just hits right and shows how a well made beer can stand the test of time.

This one envelops me like a wet dream. Like, Raul... there is something that you need to know. And what it is, is that Moonlight is my daddy. Yep! They do it again like the Yankees on Pedro Martinez back in the day. And right here, we have a smasher like Barry Bonds inserting a needle into his behind. So yeah, it’s wild. And I’m going to drink it.
See ya!
