Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: clear yellow color with a one finger white foamy head which slid off fairly nice to leave some light lace
Aroma: light hop notes of mango, subtle pine, and semi-spicy earthy vibes; light clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas together in a semi-spicy to zesty to earthy sweet tone; mild finish of the mango and piney hop tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability to it; some smoothness along the tongue; bitterness seems on par for a West coast styled pale ale
Overall: pretty nicely done pale ale I could bang again.
