16 oz mug draft at the Cityside Tavern in Brighton, Massachusetts. The pour is a hazed light yellow with a foamy one inch white head. The aroma is bright tropical fruit, mostly pineapple. The taste is bright pineapple and mango fruit with a bit of citrus bitter brightness, oat and some cereal malt. The palate is light bodied with an unfiltered mouthfeel and lower carbonation and the clean fruit, slightly bitter finish. Solid.

Can (6/12/20) pour from a trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is opaque dark yellow with tons of sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width fizzy white head with fair retention and nice leggy lacing. Aroma is resinous pine dominant over onions and milder biscuit and citrus. Taste is strong bitter resin, mild herbal and cracker backbone. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick, frothy texture, average carbonation and dry finish as taste with bitterness the dominant feature. Overall, well crafted and basically true to the description, but smells and tastes like a West Coast IPA. It's like if you were at a party where they were serving NEIPA's but you liked West Coast IPA's and wanted to look like you fit in. More bitter than I'd like (and the 53 IBU would suggest).
