Dive into a Toppling Goliath Tsunami Pale Ale. Waves of mandarin orange aroma swell into this light ale body, coasting to a smooth, easy finish. This Tsunami is a breezy ride, not too bitter, and a perfect introduction for those not yet familiar with the craft brewing world. Prepare your palate to take the plunge with a chilled Tsunami Pale, best served in a pint glass.
Admin Note: Confirmed by the brewer to be different beer from Tsunami Surf (another American Pale Ale from Toppling Goliath)

Flavors of pineapple, mango, with hints of kiwi and bready malts to support the mid-palate. The finish has barely any bitterness.

Pours hazy orange/golden with a small off-white head, some lacing. Aroma is fruity, dusty and citrus. Taste is malty, grapefruit, herbal with a bitter citrus finish
Good, this got much better as it warmed up.

Pours a cloudy, orangeish-gold, with minimal head. Floral, citrus aromas. Flavor is a very balanced combination of hop bite and malt sweetness--very smooth finish. Not quite the monster pale ale that some Toppling Goliath brews have been, but a very smooth drinking beer that I could see drinking as a "go to" pale ale.
