Month old bottle A: Crystal clear brassy gold with a short head that fell to a lasting ring and pad. S: Citrus pith, floral and herbal notes. Faint wood beneath. T: Pretty bitter with sharp herbal hops dominating light generic citrus. Malts are toasty and woody. Bitter ending. M: Soft carbonation, medium light body and mostly clean finish. O: Tasty and balanced if not terribly distinctive. I'd buy again.

12 ounce bottle from Kroger Rio Hill, 1/8/21. How have I not tried this yet? Hazy orange. Aroma of grain, toast, citrus. Old school. Taste is grapefruit, pine, toasted malt. Medium bodied, moderate bitterness, clean. Still kinda old school.

12 ounce bottle. Slightly hazy amber gold pour. Finger high frothy beige head. Fragrant citrus hop aroma. Bittersweet toasted malt flavor upfront. Spicy hops in middle redolent of pine and citrus. Peppery hop finish is pleasant.
