On tap @ Beer Culture. This is a cloudy really darkish golden colored one with a medium sized softly lacing off-white head. The nose has a hint of both smoke and cardboard. Not directly fruity but it has a hint of sweetness. Mild, yeah mild nose. It's also quite mild in the taste. If I didn't know better I'd say that this was a hopper lager. It's kinda dull and standard in the taste. Neither fruity, sweet nor bitter. Soft cardboard the only distinct flavor I get here. My girlfriend really agrees. -"it doesn't taste anything" she says. 12.06.2015

Super hazy orange and golden coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall white head. Aroma of fresh hops, pine, resin, alcohol and a pleasant malt backing. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and herbal hops up front with a large malt presence and a good deal of light fruits, as well. Aftertaste shows a pleasant balance of hops and malt with more of a pungent pine and floral hop note than anything else, but a nice sweetness on the end as well. Overall, a very nice APA with a great look as well, and showing well tied up against the Northern Thai food. I sampled this pint on draught for US$8,00 at Pok Pok in Brooklyn, New York on 19-June-2015.

Tap at the bar next to The Wick or maybe part of same venue. Anyways had a few pints of this while playing corn hole with other ratebeerians. Orange pour small whispy head. Nose is oranges and earthy. Tastes of tangerines, lemon, bready, earthy, and malt. Touch musty on finish.

Growler from the brewery. Pours hazy yellow-gold with a frothy, white head. Great aroma, some grapefruit, light piss, pith, tangerine. Light sweet flavor, clean, with juicy hops, pithy tangerine, pale bread, light minerals. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Good and juicy on the finish, further pithy citrus, slight. Clean, very tasty.

The Sampler, Brooklyn tap: Pours orange with a white head. Aroma is light citrus, pale malts. Taste is slightly bitter, but really could have used more hops (as the previous rater noted). This is perfectly drinkable, but ultimately fairy unimpressive (especially seeing as I had this right after an Evil Twin Table Beer).
