12 ounce bottle from State Line. Pours a clear amber with a medium sized frothy white head. Good head retention. Aroma of caramel and toasted malt, floral and citrus hops. The taste is floral, citrus, tropical hops. pale malt. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness. About what you’d expect.

Thanks Bill for sending. I see a date etched in the bottom that reads DOB 10/20//2014.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a nice looking slightly hazy golden orange with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute leaving some light lacing sticking and then sliding down into the beer.
The smell had a nice sweet to spicy to floral arrangement of aromas. Light blend of sweet caramel malts enter nicely in to balance.
The taste was mainly sweet and floral, a touch of spice assists in balancing. A dry finish came across my tongue.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation seemed to be good for the style and for me.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good APA worthy of having again.
