12 oz can from Boise Co-op. Pale, clear golden, big frothy head fades to patches. Aroma comes in sweet, with a woody, piney edge. Taste is malty, mildly sweet and not that hoppy. Very laid back.

Clear golden body with a white head. Fruity hop aroma. Hop taste with a firm malt presence, this is a pale, not an IPA. Crisp finish.

Draught @ Darbys. Haze, thin head, dull tan. A little bit of overripe fruit hop character on the nose. Gentle bitterness, light grapefruit, kinda yeasty... decent beer, actually, just not standing out. But I like it.

12 oz can poured. Pretty refreshing pale here from the first sip. A can that caught my eye from across the bottleshop as well. A shiny golden orange pour, mostly clean. Some orange to this, and certainly has a sweet side to it as well. Nice juiciness to it without any major thickness. Cool and tasty. Good pale here.
