Bottle: Light golden color topped with a large creamy white head. Tons of sticky sheet lacing. Aroma is very PNW… lots of citrus and pine. Dank hops. Potent and inviting. Taste is a bit dry and floral, dusty. Lingering bitters. Some grapefruit and faint sweetness, but also a little soapy. The nose is really strong and nice, but the taste falls a little short. It’s not bad, but better flavor development could have been a homerun.

Bottle from Yamaichi. Deep orange color, lightly hazy, low fine head. Big fruity nose, oranges, peaches, some passion fruit and resin. A bit of honey and biscuit. Nice. Rather sweet, herbal and fruity, some peppery hop and a bit of spice. Rounded and full, light carbonation. Good.

Bottle at Mongers. A pretty damn nice beer. Pours a clear copper color with a large white head. A big citrus nose, some caramel. The flavor is toasted malts, marmalade, medium resin, some bitterness, more candied fruity hops. Very smooth. I enjoyed this a lot.

Citrus dominates this brew, soft grapefruit aroma and taste. Normal body, color and substance, but Citra hops really make the difference here
