Sixer over the weekend. Orange pour and a finger of white foam. Nose is sweet candies citrus. Tatses of grapefruit, apricot, sugar, some perfume. Chewy mouthfeel.

Pours amber with a huge white head and bubbly carbonation. Aroma of citra, pine. Taste has a smooth malt base with distinct hop notes: Amarillo, citra, some odd hints of anise and other herbs. Palate has lingering pine resin on the tongue, some on the nose. Good.

Pours hazy gold into a shaker. Bright white head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Resin and pith aromas. Sharp with hot caramel, resin, pith and peel front to back. Lasting earthy resin finish.

Can (5/20/20) pour. Appearance is light brown-dark yellow with nice sparkle, finger-width white head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is dank citrus, orange, light pine, caramel backbone, mild herb. Taste is citrus (leaning to the orange side), candied fruit, mild pine. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, on the juicy side for a NEBCO beer but it has their signature. Enjoyable but not blowing me away.

12 oz. can shared by tfontana, thanks! Aroma is pine cone, mild apricot, yeast, and caramel. What is the deal with caramel malts and or Crystal melts with this brewer? It’s easy to drink but more sweetness from malt then I want in a IPA.
