Growlette from the brewery.
My first pour was into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy burnt orange color with a slight transparency about it. Concave lace.
The aroma starts with some pineapple, dried pine needles, light honeydew. Some sweet to bitter grassy hops. Refined malt layer far underneath.
The flavor balances nicely, pure and bittersweet between the bitter hops and the sweet hops. Malts once again are there, but are underneath. Dried piney to citrusy aftertaste. Pine induced finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a great sessionability about it. Mild carbonation. Feels good for the most part.
Overall, really nice AIPA that I will be sure to grab more of.
