Drifting against the current, Updrift moves against the grain of predictable flavor, bringing a bright clean hop aroma chock full of tropical, stone fruit and zesty citrus. Underpinned by a foundation of toasty malt, the punchy assertive hops rise upward in a crescendo of flavor, leading to a clean hoppy finish. Atop the dune, the trail or after catching the big wave, bring Updrift on your next adventure and ascend the crest of hop character!

Orangey colour, some haze, bubbly head. Piney, weedy, lemony hop aroma. Rich pithy bitterness and biscuity pale malts. Some pine notes and bitter orange. Some alcohol in the finish as well.

32oz crowler from Growler Guys. Rich golden body, small foamy head. Aroma is light caramel, light citrus. Taste continues with this, nice caramelly flavors with a touch of citrusy malts (but not citrusy in a hazy way). Straight forward and simple.
