Bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours hazy gold with a moderate white head. Aroma is earth/herb. Med body or so. Flavor is earthy/herb/citrus. Dry. Nicely bitter. Prickles suggesting passion fruit. I think it qualifies for dank - covers the herb aspect. Assuming weed is an herb. :)

I thot I tasted this already, I guess not. 2020 one hitter series. Just about at room temp. Comes across like another IPA, what have you? Yes, smells like a volatile IPA, looks like an IPA, tastes like an IPA, must be IPA? Looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, behaves like a duck, smells like a duck? It must be a tiger? Well, its an IPA but the label says APA? No: It is not an APA, to rude and way too nasty to be a typical APA. Arrogant but not bastard, just almost gets there. Its even 7.2%, so it may even be an imperial double IPA? Just asking. There, you have it, another IPA influenced beer, for the real man in yah. Gottah have one of these 2 trillion samples of beer that all taste the same. WTF? Lets watch the man show, at least they know its better to have a pale lager, heheh.

12oz bottle thanks to @jbruner pours a mostly clear gold, a little haze, soapy white head, plenty of fizz. Nose has grass, lemon, straw, grapefruit, hand soap. Flavor is soapy, peppery, punchy, like a punchy green tea leaves, grapefruit, some candy on the end. Pretty tight, zippy finish. Drinks like 4%.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle dated October 5, 2020. Aroma is very hop forward with a strong fresh hop character. Lots of bright citrus notes with mango, passion fruit, guava and pear. Quite a bit of dank, resinous character as well. Light cracker malt notes with hints of caramel and faint alcohol notes. Pours a slightly hazy, copper-orange color with a medium large, thick pillowy white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light cracker malt notes and hints of caramel. Moderately strong bitterness with light alcohol notes. Quite a bit of fresh hop character with bright citrus, passion fruit, mango and pear notes as well as a bunch of dank, resin notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid beer. Fresh hop beers have a such a unique character to them and this one exhibits those notes quite nicely.

12 oz bottle from Lagunitas. Borned on 10-5-20. Hey there! A big snort of American style hops right under the cap: Citrus, pine resin, even a bit of catbox. For being unfiltered, it's only slightly hazy, and sits nicely under a thick head. Taste matches up to the nose, of course. Lots of sharp Pacific pale ale hops (the sheet they sent with it says Simcoe, Citra, Mosaic, and Indigenous Catawampus). Malt is slightly toasty, with alcohol buildup as I drink the beer, but it only slightly backs up to the hops. Tasty and quick drinking. Glad I got a second bottle.

Good IPA, um, ahem, Pale Ale (right), with a ton of juicy, citrus-centric hops backed up by hints of chive, pepper, mint, and dank. Finishes with a mild earthy bitterness. Tasty.

12 ounce bottle from Woodman's Appleton, 10/25/19. Hazy amber, medium white head, good retention. Aroma of green, dank, leafy, earthy hops, some tea and mint. Taste is tropical, green hops, pale malt. Medium bodied, lingering bitterness. Nice.
