Bottle. Orange/peach, caramel malt, and grapefruit peel aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Mildly sweet orange caramel malt and moderately bitter grapefruit peel flavor. Good body. Decent, standard.

22 oz bottle picked up in eastern WA. Cloudy golden yellow pour with a lasting fizz head. Earthy hop aroma. Flavor is semi spicy hops, and a cool refreshing finish. Tasty.

Bottle - 2012 Nice lemon grass and citrus aroma. Clear pale orange with an awesome thick head that looks like it will last forever. Lots of grass and lemon, much like I expected from this style. A mild bitterness that fades nicely. This is very comparable to Deschutes Chasing Freshies but much better in my opinion. Great mouth feel as well. 2013 Leafy vegatal hops with some light lemon. Clear gold with a thin bubbly white head. Leafy hops, light but great. A very light sessionable IPA, probably the best fresh hop this year.

22oz bomber pours clear deep gold with semi loose off white head. The modest aroma has some spicy hops, earthy to slightly dank hops as well as a bit of citrus like lemon to lime notes. The taste is similar with some spicy to earthy to dank like hoppiness that have both bittering hop and hop flavor going for them. Around those notes are lesser amounts of floral hops, some malt graininess, stale sort of organic malts and a yeastiness that seems to pull this apart rather than add to the experience. Regardless this is a decent product.

Bottle: A pale, fuzzy golden color with a mountain of fluffy white head. Nose is aromatic with hops, florals and citrus. More sweet than anything. Wet hop mouthful is not overly hoppy or bitter, but flavorful of citrus and florals. The maltiness really drowns out any bitterness. A smooth, easy drinking fresh hop ale.
