Pint can at a mini-RB gathering in November. Poured a hazy golden color with a small white head. Aroma was light funky yeast, tropical fruits. Bitter pineapple notes.

16 oz can from Wine Chateau. Hazy orange. Pine and dough, some bread, good bit of spice as well. A little dry, a little grassy. Lots of earth. Drinks a little dirty, so I guess the name is appropriate...

Decent enough pale ale, not as juicy-fruity as claimed.

Pours a clear golden-yellow, with quickly dissipating head. Aroma of grass, bread, and some citrus. Flavor is very grassy, with some breadiness, and a bitter finish of pine/spruce hops.

1 Pint can from Nikki’s Liquors, Providence, 3.49 $. Juicy yellow in the glass, one finger white head. Smell is grapefruity, some herbs. Taste starts with some orange juice, followed by a floral hop bitterness, some peper elements. Malt in the background. Okay.
