Can. Opaque amber with a sudsy off-white head that has fair retention and ample lacing. The aroma is medium in strength with caramel malts, something floral, pine, and light mango(y) citrus. The taste is caramel malts, breads, mangos and pine resins. Medium pine bitterness. Good viscous palate. Finishes long with lingering bitter pine and caramel. Overall: Sort of an old school type of APA, very nice. Paired well with some trail mix.

12oz can. A well done APA, done in a more classical style...in other words there are malt tones and hop bitterness, not a one-dimensional backdrop to show off dryhop tones. Filtered, with fast rising carbonation bubbles that meet a soapy, white head. Big grapefruit bitterness for the style, but a pleasant malt backdrop to back it up..nothing special, but perhaps a little crystal malt that fleshes it out. Well done, enjoyable beer.

Bottle: Lightly hazy gold with a white head. Bright grapefruit, orange, lemon-peel scent. Taste is nicely zesty citrus.....grapefruit-peel. Really clean and tingly. Very nice.

Orange, caramel malt, and grapefruit peel aroma. Hazy amber with small head. Moderately sweet orange, caramel malt, and moderately bitter grapefruit peel and pine flavor. Good body. Nice solid APA.
