On tap at the brewery. Aroma is fairly hoppy with quite a bit of grapefruit citrus notes and some lighter tropical fruit balanced with moderate notes of pine resin. Medium light cracker and biscuit character. Pours a fairly cloudy yellow orange with a small white head that recedes to the edges where it lingers nicely. Medium high lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a moderate cracker malt character with a light sweetness. Medium hop flavor of grapefruit and pine resin with some faint tropical fruit notes and light lemon notes. Medium high bitterness that is fairly assertive for the size of the beer. Finishes with a nice dryness. Mouthfeel is medium light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall a pretty enjoyable pale ale with a lot of hops but it has a danker hop character than something like Zombie Dust. A nice malt character balances the hop notes and bitterness.
