Can. A mostly clear foggy beer with a dense beige head of moderate size. Curtains. The aroma has caramel and a touch of bread, some pine cones and resin and a pleasant citrus scent. It's full bodied and softly carbonated, with a good bitterness and a balancing sweetness. Piney, resiny and lightly citrusy hops up front, on a backdrop of bready malts and caramel. Medium length finish. A decent beer indeed, although a bit more malty and sweet for my preference. Nice with something different than NEIPA though. 240807
