Draught @ City Hops. Clear golden with foamy whitish head, faint citrus aroma, medium carbonation, mildly bitter taste with grapefruit flavor, thin body, long finish. Mellower than what I expected.

Very hazy pale golden coloured body with a nice two to three centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of very fragrant and bittering grapefruit, citrus and mellow grassy and citrus-based hops. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong bittered grapefruit and herbal quality at first with a nice citrus and lemon peel note showing some grass and subdued piney hop flavours without much malt body, also showing some herbs and white pepper around the fringes. Aftertaste is enjoyable with a pleasant bitterness from the grapefruits more than the hops, but with a very light malty flavour, which showcases the bitterness even more - in a good way. Overall, an enjoyable beer that hits on one portion of the tongue, while going down quite easily and super dry throughout. This would be excellent in summer and warmer months, especially in Washington! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, brewed on 19-Janurary-2018 ('All the Juice' batch), purchased at Bob's Sunoco (Beer Cave) in Lexington Park, Maryland on 05-March-2018 for US$2,99 sampled on the train from Connecticut to New York on 11-March-2018.

Draft at Paradiso Dupont. Hazy golden color, bright white head with good retention and solid lacing. Aroma of - wait for it - grapefruit. But also some tropical fruit. Taste has bitter mixed fruit. Tasty.
