Fort Point balances light, crisp, malt character with an abundance of hop-derived aromatics and flavors from the use of Citra and Columbus. The fragrant nose is fresh citrus, tropical fruit, and peach. Bold flavors of pineapple and mango mix with dank notes of zesty citrus and fresh pine needles. With the smooth mouthfeel, gentle bitterness, and dry finish, Fort Point is our standard daily-drinker.

750ml bottle thanks to red beard. Pours out a hazy straw topped with a white head. Nose is nice tropical fruit citrus pineapple and some melon. Taste is more of the tropical fruit mix and nice hop and malt balance.

Sample at the Northeastern Brewery (ME/MA) Tasting on 08/09/2015. Cloudy orange color with a medium frothy white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Sticky strings of lace. Aroma of resiny hops, tropical fruit and malt. Medium body with flavors of resiny hop, tropical fruit, melon and biscuit malt. The finish is slightly creamy and mildly bitter with a fruity hop aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Location: 750 ml bottle from the brewery, 8/12/15, Bottled 7/28/15
Aroma: Wonderful aroma that starts off tropical and citrusy, with mango and papaya, some citrus zest, very bright and fruity overall, with herbal and resiny hints, and a bit of pale malt
Appearance: Pours an unclear orange color with a frothy white head and mid-heavy lacing
Flavor: It tastes much like it smells, fruity, with a bit of sweetness, and a clean hop bitterness
Palate: Medium bodied, smooth, clean, and extremely drinkable, with a soft feel and a dry close
Overall Impression: This is a beautiful APA. Great all the way through from the aroma through the flavor. Lives up to it's reputation for sure. One of the best new things I have tried in a while, and one of the best examples of the style I can ever remember trying. Excellent.

Medium carbonation, juicy mouthfeel. Delicious tropical citrusy pale ale.

The beer is a hazy orangey yellow. More than hazy, quite cloudy. Big white head. Glowy color. Lots of lacing. The aroma pops with fresh hoppiness. There’s a big pineapple note with pine, tangerine, grass and lime. It has that yeasty, minerally sharpness of the new wave of top hoppy beers. The taste is dry and full of hop flavor. Moderate bitterness, builds to medium bitter in the finish. Wonderful mineral character. Crisp and light. Mouthfeel is full, light and refreshing. Super easy to drink. Feels dangerously lighter than 6.6% abv. Excellent beer.

Pours straw yellow. The nose is incredible - fresh grass, straw, ripe tropical fruits (mango, pineapple, etc.) and a sharp cannabis tones attack the nose on this beer. The palate is the same - a good crisp bitterness expected from the a pale ale and the hops showcase all those juicy tropical fruits. Extremely sessionable and highly recommend it as fresh as possible.
