On tap at Huss, pours a clear pale copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out light piney hops, biscuity malt and a hint of butter. Flavour is along the same lines, with piney hops, biscuity malt and light diacetyl. Needs a bit of cleaning up. It's okay.

Location: Draft at the Brewpub, 3/8/14
Aroma: It has a tropical/citrus fruit hop aroma, some pine/resin, and some malty notes as well
Appearance: It pours a clear golden-orange color with a decent sized white head
Flavor: The taste is much the same, clean and hoppy with a little fruity sweetness as well
Palate: The body is medium, it has a clean mouthfeel, soft carbonation, and a dry finish
Overall Impression: I thought this was a really enjoyable APA. I like that they named the beer for a team that's only around for a few weeks. I hope all the Cubs fans in town for spring training enjoyed this one.

Growler pours with a perfectly clear copper body that supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up . . . well, I couldn’t wait and took a hurried swig of this first . . . oh yeah. That works. YUM. Ok the aroma is very inviting where there’s a mix of citrus, mango and spicy dank earthy onion like hoppiness. Just what I like. The taste too. Yes. It’s juicy, rich, clean and snappy with grapefruit, tangelo, a bit of mango and then some nice yet modest levels of dank spicy onion hoppy goodness. Love it. All of these flavors are right in my wheel house.
2016. This is good but for some reason not "amazing" like the first batch. It doesn’t even seem like the same beer. Score adjusted from 4.3 to 3.9.
