Bottle from Cap Tap. Pours copper tinged gold with a creamy/bubbly white head. Aroma is tropical/citrus/floral. Med body. Flavor is a lot of hop arguably matching the aroma over pale malt, but there's a fairly strong herb/veg/dank note. Not unpleasant - just puzzling. Almost pale stone fruits wanting to be dank? Pretty tasty ale in the event.

Poured up on tap at THE Barclays where it exhibits a clear pure gold body that supports a white head. The aroma is inviting with danky onion like hop spiciness as well as thin strips of mango and cantaloupe. The taste is modestly juicy but more bitter and a bit resiny too. I get bitter pineapple and spicy dank onion followed by light juicy mango and clementine. This is a pretty rich pale and as such has somewhat limited sessionability but damn good.

On tap at Faction. It pours a clear golden color with an off white head. The aroma is citrusy and floral with a touch of dank. The flavor is the same. Citrusy and dank with a hint of spice. There’s a touch of toast and honey, but this is totally hop forward. A great drinker.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream head. Summer fruit and grapefruit aroma. Grapefruit and light pine flavor with light woodsiness. Medium bodied. Grapefruit and light pine linger with woodsiness, light herbal notes, and malt backing.
