Single from The Brew Shop in Arlington, bottled 11/5/24. Low-ball glass back at the hotel. Slightly opaque, kinda hazy but not totally, lingering white wash lather. Nice strong whiff of fresh n grassy citrus just as the cap came off. More direct sniffs get herbal, citrus & green tea notes. Juicy but soft bittersweet orange & a stronger white pith character. Floral middle, dusty froth, a dab of creme. Just a touch of pine on the tail, not much. Lingering bitterness on the tongue is excellent. Fuzzy, lightweight, slight acid, strong for the abv list. Great beer.

Slight haze on a golden beer with a white head. Pine, mango, citrus fruit, grass, resin. Medium bodied. Finish has a healthy amount of bitterness and is somewhat dry. This is a superb beer.
