On tap at the Reservoir, Waterbury, VT.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy semi-burnt orange color with a bar pour’s kind of slim white head that dissipated evenly and at a nice pace. Light semi-foamy lacing ran around the sides of the glass nicely.
The smell took on some sweet onion and then rolled into the dank sweet to juicy danky grassiness. Slight floral qualities slide in underneath.
The taste was pretty much the same as the smell with a nice danky sweet onion aftertaste running into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a fairly nice sessionable quality about it. Carbonation runs fairly light. Danky juiciness smooths out over my tongue.
Overall, I’d say this was a pretty nice APA that I would have again.

750mL growler, sent from my sugar daddy, pours a cloudy darker orange with a medium white head. Nose brings out fresh tropical fruits, resinous hops and just enough malt to back. Flavour is uber fresh, with loads of dry tropical fruits, resinous hops, and a thin malt backbone. Very juicy and resinous, though sure light. Beautifully balanced, with a nice dry finish. Excellent as usual.

750 ml growler thanks to Adam. Aroma is floral, citrus and traces of grapefruit. Really bright and juicy.
Flavor is a great display of Amarillo hop variety. Floral upfront with juicy citrus and light residual sugar sweetness with a nice pale grain body. Different hints of fruits and melon in the backend with a very clean finish. Hints of dank, leafy hops. Jeez this is damn refreshing! All day drinker for me, can’t get enough.

Growler thanks to Seth. Pours a cloudy orange with thick frothy white head that leaves sticky lacing. The aroma is strong pine, lemon zest, and citrus. Medium mouthfeel with wet pine hop, light citrus, and lingering bitter finish. Easy to drink, very impressive.

From the 12/2013 3R6P gathering +++ Sampled from a growler this beer poured a cloudy pale yellow color with a large fluffy white head that lingered and left great lacing. The aroma was strong grapefruit and a bit of pine, lemon and perfume. The flavor was tart and bitter with a strong grapefruit presence and notes of lemon, pine, perfume, pepper and a hint of bread. Medium length grapefruit and lemon finish. Medium body. Solid.

Super citrusy, like biting into a not so bitter grapefruit, quite tasty and fresh. Completely hazy yellow body, ring after ring of nice lace

Pours from a growler a hazy golden color with a medium white head that dissipates gradually to a film. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of floral hops, citrus and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of hops, zesty citrus and toasted malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a hops and tropical fruit aftertaste. Good beer from start to finish,
