Can (10/5/20) pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Appearance is lightly hazy amber-light brown with tons of sparkle, finger-plus beige head with excellent retention and nice, soapy lacing. Aroma is mix of dank pine resin and citrus over caramel malts. Taste is strong dank pine resin over caramel malt and mild citrus. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, glad for the opportunity to have quintessential Three Floyd's--extremely well crafted and a classic in the annals of craft brewing. A great representative of its moment in time.

Pours a luxurious russet from a can. Caramel, pine and grass in the nose, rather light. Similar flavor. Slightly dry. Good beer.

440 ml can. Unclear amber with a big fluffy foamy head. Dried fruits (plum, raisins, dates), caramel, pine, grassy herbal hops, lemon zest, grapefruit, some chocolate, some nut. Malty caramel sweetness, dry piney hoppy bitterness. Full bodied, oily texture, soft carbonated, dry herbal bitter sweet finish. A very unusual APA, but really nice one!
