On tap @ the Armory seattle. Dorada, anaranjada, poca espuma. Aroma intenso frutal. Lupulado y cítrico. En boca es ligera, algo aguada, de amargor extraño y sabor cítrico, pomelo.

The whole was greater than the sum of its parts. Light hop aroma. Some fruit. Sweetish flavour, like fruit again. Pleasant finish and the whole made it worth while.

12 oz can. Pours a clear amber with moderate head. Aromas of grass, pine, light tropical fruit and toasted malts. Flavors of same but drier and more toastes malts. An easy going ale - nothing outstanding but nothing wrong either...

12 oz can; 31st Dec 2017, third beer of the day. Yet another tangerine/orange flavoured beer, seem to be finding plenty of them on this trip to California. Poured into a La Chouffe stemmed tulip glass, it had a golden body and a white affair on top. Orange leanings throughout the aroma and taste. Decent (if you like oranges/tangerines etc, etc).

Pour is a super hazy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a nice citrus fruit hops. Flavor is the same. Fruity hops with a dry malty backbone. The hops are not going to overpower and knock you off your chair but this is mor hoppy than your average pale ale. Perfect for a patio.

Back log On tap at the tap station west Seattle. Pours out a orangish amber topped with a white head. Nose is citrus hops some spice and a nice malt. Taste is more of the nice hops and a well balanced malt bill.
