Regionally grown American pale malt is blended with rich European malts to produce a lighter bodied beer, bright in color, with a taught white head that keeps track of time as you sip. Then there are the hops – four pounds per barrel to be exact. Willamettes, Cascades, CTZ and Summits give this brew a citrus punch and spicy character that greets you in the nose and embraces your mouth with a clean, crisp bitterness.

12 oz can purchased at Zipp’s in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Canned on 10/28/12 according to the sticker on the six pack holder (nice solution to the dating challenge). The pour is a lightly hazed golden orange with a smallish white head. The head leaves behind nice lacing. The aroma is bright and fresh grapefruit bitterness, resin and a gentle pine. Soft grassy malt underneath is present as well. The taste is a really nice balance between the grapefruit resin and pine bitterness and the cracker grass malt. A tiny hint of caramel sweetness comes out as the beer warms. The palate is light bodied, soft natural carbonation, and a great dry grass and bitter finish. Super easy drinking Pale Ale, crisp, clean and fresh. Right up my alley. Thanks to Tyler, and my Dad, for the assist on this one. Reminded me of Victory Headwaters, which I also love.

Pours a slightly cloudy, golden yellow with big head that dissipates rather quickly. Big hop aroma. Flavor is very hoppy, with an almost soapy aftertaste. Grassy and citrus flavors as well. Very bitter finish to the beer. Nice--looking forward to what else these guys come up with.

Tap @ Indeed. Pours a clear golden appearance with a pearl white head. Very dank, marijuana, grapefruity, somewhat spicy aroma. Spicy, zesty herbal, dank hoppy, orange, grapefruit citrusy flavor. Super dank and maybe a touch overdone but a nice beer to drink.

On tap at the brewery, also available on cask. nice orange color. thin white head. good hop aroma before the glass is even near my nose. intense hop aroma when it is closer. flaove is mostly hops, dry and bitter with an herbal, spicy character. dry malt, and a dry lingering finish. a fine session beer.
