Aroma of citrus and evergreen hops. Taste is bitter like a west coast IPA. Finishes crisp and the hops is not long lasting.

Tap at RFD. Pours gold with a white head. Aroma is floral and citrus with pleasing mildly roasty. Flavor is like a strongly bitter bitter. Strongly.

3 month old can into an IPA. A: Large lasting frothy head over a rich gold bubbly body. S: Sour unripe orange and leafy herbs. T: Slight malty sweetness and tart citrus hit at once with bitter zest and tea leaves closing. Not nearly as sweet as expected. Nicely balanced actually, with hops slightly more forward. M: Light to medium weight with just enough carbonation. Wet and mildly puckering finish. O: Better than expected, this tastes better than it smells. Nothing earth-shaking but a solid pale.

Can, drank from the can; no appearance notes. Aroma and taste are pine, metallic, light sweet and light bitter. Ungood.

Random light citrusy pale ale. Pours golden with ok head and lacing. Some light bitterness and citrus in finish. On tap at DC Summerfest in the VIP section I snuck into.

Picked up a 22oz bottle at a local Nellysford grocery store. Poured an amber color with a small slightly off-white head. Aroma was some light hop notes, malt character to it. Flavor was some balanced malt and hop notes, nice citrus here. Very sessionable brew.
