Pronounced grapefruit, citrus and pine resin flavors with a faint verdant note, this light-colored ale has minimal malt interference, giving the beer a clean finish without a cloying bitterness. American-style Pale Ale gold medal winner at 2019 GABF.

16oz pour into a plastic beaker on Friday 15th August 2025. Some random fast food joint in Seattle near our hotel. Clean and clear golden body, decent white crown for a while. Nice enough blend with a slight citrus leaning and some malt action for balance, grapefruit hints in the flavour, but it's not overly powerful.

Dullish hazy, thin head. Bitter, some allium, some cannabis. Not all that distinct, the hop, and the malt is kind of weak, leaving an empty body in its wake.

12 ounce can. Slightly hazy, orange gold color. Rocky beige head. Great lacing. Floral hop aroma hints at honeysuckle, mango and passion fruit. Flavor leans toward sharp citrus and subtle pine. A bit of grapefruit and sweet melon. Bitter finish.

From City Brew Tours, canned September 4th 2023.
It pours a pale gold with a finger of foam, long lasting, plenty of lacing.
The smell is pine, grapefruit, mild hint of tropical fruit, toasted malt.
The taste is pine and grapefruit, kind of bitter, toasted malt, long lasting finish and on the dry side. No sign of any balance.
Medium bodied, carbonation is fine.
Good APA but 1 can is enough for me.

12oz can. Pours an orange-amber color with a big sandy head. Sweet aroma of citrus and malt, a little piney. Very minimal sweetness up front before an assertive piney and floral bitterness.

Malt, a bit of tangerine but not a lot going on here in terms of hops. Decent body at least. Golden pour. Just OK. Can.

12 oz from a six pack from the grocery store. Aroma has notes of onion, weed, wet stone, biscuity malt. Pours hazy golden with a one finger bone white head that falls into a long-standing skiff of foam quickly. Taste is lightly bittersweet with crisp and refreshing flavors.

On tap. Pours a dull amber with little head. Aromas of pineapple, muddled tropical fruit, pine and soft toasted malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on sharp resiney hops. Clean and fruity. Nice
