22 oz bottle from Winooski Beverage, 8/28/15. Cloudy orange color with a frothy, beige head and sticking, drippy lace. Kind of a gusher when I popped the bottle cap off. It has tropical fruit good, some resin notes, and a bit of sweet malt as well. Bitterness comes through over the sweetness. Average carbonation leads to a fairly dry close. Decent flavor and feel overall.

A golden ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, biscuit malt over earthy nutty notes, grassy British hops, OK. In mouth, an oily earthy biscuit malt, very roasted, light floral hops lingering bitterness, nice. On tap at Vermont Tap House.

Notched on the side reads \"19 Mar.\"
This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy golden color with a finger’s worth of white foaminess of head that must linger for at least a good full minute before dissipating. Messy foamy lacing rings around the glass.
The smell had a sharp citrus rind, slight lemon, somewhat orange, slight piney hops and a bright floral quality combines nicely.
The taste was mostly bitter with light sweet citrus aspects trying to balance. There’s a semi-sweet to slight bitter citrus to pine aftertaste that leads to a dry finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. The carbonation seemed good as an APA. Dry bitterness leaves a harsh feel roaming around my tongue.
Overall, this was a good APA I could come back to.
