Draught at Charred, 2/11/23. Clear-ish, peachy-golden. Medium-sized, off-white head, moderate retention. Yellow fruits mixing with citrus and light pine. Lots of biscuit and white bread with a pinch of sourdough and sweaty hop. Pretty good sweet-bitter balance, perceived in the nose. Not resinous or boozey. Clean. Soft, malty, at first somewhat rather uncomplex. Just peach-apricot-pine-orange, but gaining more delicate fruitiness and with biscuit and vanilla. Pine and citrus on the end, not too heavily. Good, easy drinking but with assertive flavors. Like a new-school, well-done WC IPA.

~6 oz taster as part of a taster tray at the Historic Harvey House in the Bright Angel Lodge at the Grand Canyon, Arizona. The pour is a slight haze golden with a foamy white head that leaves behind nice lace. The aroma is sweet floral, honey and a bit of sweet candy. The taste is crisp cereal malt balanced nice with the sweet honey floral hops. The palate is medium bodied with soft carbonation. 6,4,7,4,12 - 3.3 Re-rate 3/14/21 Can purchased as a single as the Trader Joe’s in Scottsdale, Arizona. Canned 2/15/21. The pour is a mostly clear orange golden with a well formed 2 inch off white head. The head falls slow with thick sheets of lace. Pretty beer. The aroma is a faint tropical fruit pineapple, along with toasted cracker malt. The taste is clean pineapple and orange citrus softly balanced with the malt of the nose. The palate is medium bodied, soft bitter finish. Can sense the alcohol in the after taste as the beer warms. Solid IPA. 6,5,7,4,13 - 3.5
