Can via Beer Republic. Med-thin body, med-high carbonation. High bitterness, med-light sweetness. Moderate alcoholic warmth, slightly burning too, apparently not made to be a subtle beer this one. Light caramelly maltiness, obligatory at this strength, but mostly focused on hops. Classic west coast character, citrusy, resiny, a bit piney. Overall pretty nice even if not the most drinkable.

Can from 2021. Darkly hazy gold beer, under a very thick head. Orangey and piney hop in the nose. The taste has more alcohol than it might when it was fresher, because the hops have started to fade a bit. A definite orange juice taste from the hop bill, then a bit of bitter aftertaste in the back of the palate.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy copper golden with a small white head. Aroma doesn't smell especially fresh, with earthy hops, some resins, light pine, and caramel bready malt. Flavour confirms my non-fresh suspicions, with washed out earthy hops, some resins, and lightly sweet bready malt. Reasonably balanced and constructed. Nice one, St Aug's, putting these old keg on. Suboptimal.
