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.

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.
