Can - Lemon and Mandarin citrus. Clear gold with a small white head. Big bitter citrus peel with a long bitter finish. A bit too bitter for me.

Little bit hazy, tan. Earthy bitterness, The hops are a bit cheesy. The malts aren't bad, a bit of crackery notes. This one's quite dry, though the hops aren't as bright as I'd prefer. I think it hits a pocket that on another day I might appreciate more.

500mL can, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of spicy and earthy hops, some bitter pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour follows suit, with lots of earthy and spicy hops, some pine, and dry biscuity malt. Very earthy and spicy. Not the best hoppy beer from these guys, but it's not bad.

Very West Coast IPA, bitter and resinous with a hearty malt sweetness and mild citrus and dank notes. Modest caramel and cereal grain sits atop a mountain of pinecones laced with herbal spiciness and a peppery fade. Finishes dry as my neighbor’s houseplants I’m supposed to be watering. Guess I’ve been ruined by all these newfangled juice-bomb IPAs, because I’m just not digging the deep, clingy IBUs this pint is putting out. Mostly bitterness and sweetness, lacking subtlety or complexity. Not bad, I guess, just not my cup of tea.

Can from Corti Bros. Pours brassy gold with a white head. Aroma is half the way to dank with floral and citrus/pine. Not too strong on the pine. Med + body. Flavor is mildly roasty malt, citrus/pine, earthy, floral. Hop burn. Intense hops. This is hop head stuff for sure. Completely unbalanced. Hmmm. Note to self. Google why balance is important. ROFL. Really flavorful, strongly flavorful, ale. Knee Deep rules!

Can, dated 5/10. Pours clear golden orange, medium off white head, dissipates fairly slowly, decent lacing. Aroma is floral, perfume, oranges, dankness. Flavor is light plus sweet, light plus bitter, orange zest and a faint tea note. Medium body, soft mouthfeel. No where near as good as expected.
