From Dash Market. Golden. Leafy, citric, bit of pine and some caramel malts. Straightforward IPA.

Draft: Poured a blonde color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops notes with some light cereal notes also perceptible. Taste is a mix of mild citrusy hops, light cereal notes with some light residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Nothing earth shattering here but refreshing and well brewed beer nonetheless.

Pours amber with a thick white head. Aroma of pine and citrus. Taste has dark fruit and woody resin. Palate has herbal notes and juniper/evergreen. Certainly interesting and flavorful.

From notes from a Maine roadtrip this past summer. Malt backbone, pine aroma and flavor. Good beer.

Bottle, Total Wine, South Richmond. Pours slightly hazy golden with a small white head. Nice tropical hop aroma, pine, pot, citrus, pineapple, light floral notes. Flavor is orange, pine, grapefruit rind, light pineapple. Tingly, acidic. Pretty good.

355ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy orange-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that laces. Mild aroma of orange, lemon, pineapple, floral and pale malt. Sweet flavour of pale malt, caramel, orange, tangerine, grapefruit and light pine resin with a dry, bitter grass finish. Light to medium body with a watery to oily texture and soft carbonation. Disappointing, the aroma is too mild, the flavour lacks punch and the body is too thin for the style.

Draught @ Albion. Clear golden with very small frothy off-white head, faint malt aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter grassy taste, thin body, medium bitter finish. A bit disappointing, really.

Draft at Beer Culture. Clean hop aroma of grass, spice, pine, and a bit of earth. Dry and clean. Medium bitter. Easy drinking. Very solid.
