Bottle. Hazy light golden color, fluffy white head, solid lacing. Aroma of bright pine, birch bark, forest. Taste is bitter fruit and white pepper, rising bread dough. Really nice.

22 oz. bottle. Nose is lots of citrus hops with spice/coriander and some wheat. The unconventional hybrid of a Belgian Wit and IPA, works here. Lemon zest, wheat complimented by pepper, coriander, orange peel, with floral hops with a weak pine hop note to round out the flavors. Bitterness is short and compliments the wheat and spices. Bubbly like champagne mouthfeel. The palate is light to medium, effervescent, and crisp. I see a new trend forming with this style. Many more breweries are attempting this style. The gentlemen at Harpoon do a nice job with this one. Well worth a try and I may revisit this.

Bottle #4 split between Jim and I prior to a wedding clearly too much before going to drinking event anyways. Pours hazy light straw color with tropical nose. tastes of white grapes, vanilla, lemon, floral and light pepper. refreshing brew. Thanks to whomever added this to database prior to me getting first rating
