Pours hazy golden with a bubbly white head. Aroma of light citra. Taste has floral hops and pine resin on a dry malt base. Palate has lemon peel, dry, yeasty malt on the tongue and nose. Good.

4 oz. draft at The Grog, Newburyport, MA. Hazy bright yellowish color. Aroma of white bread, citrus peel, and subtle pine. The flavor showed me grapefruit, lemons, and a mild herbal pine in the finish. Nice balance with an even bitterness.

Overall, very nicely made. I ordered a full 16 oz. pint after the taster. Nice drinkability.

Pours a slightly hazy golden straw from a can. Lightly citrus pine or spruce aroma, flavor is more of a pale malt with pine tinge. Crisply bitter. Okay beer.

Can pour into shaker pint glass from Andover Liquors. Appearance is cloudy orange-yellow (like watered-down orange juice) with nice sparkle at the edge of the glass, finger-plus width foamy white head with fair retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is tropical fruit, citrus, lighter resin and cracker. Taste is tangy tropical fruit and citrus with light herbs and late bitter. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, lively carbonation and spicy, sweet fruit balance with late bitter finish. Overall, aside from mild cracker in the aroma, this is really more IPA than APA. Nevertheless, whatever you call it, this is quite good. Bold aromas and flavors with interesting spiciness.

Tap at some joint across from TF Green airport. Lighter lager like pour. Nose is bright citrus and cracker. Quite bitter. Tastes of lemon, light orange zest, water crackers, pepper, some herbal notes. Zesty palate.

Thanks for the crowler, Henry!
This was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a burnt golden color with a slight transparency about it. Some carbonation could be seen ever so slightly rising to fill a quickly dissipating finger’s worth of white foamy head. Not much lace.
The aroma had some sweet danky onion, light citrus and a little bit of sharp bitter pine. Low malt quality - really subtle.
The flavor was moderately sweet through the previously mentioned aromas. Bitterness did find it’s way into the overall taste fairly nice. The aftertaste was fully blended. Finish was danky sweet and bitter pine.
The feel was about medium bodied, perhaps slightly under with a clean sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, pretty nice APA worthy of having again.
