Pours hazy gold into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Orange and mango aromas. Dry with sweet mango and sourdough upfront turning to pith in the medium length finish.

Draught at Ginger Man Boston, 9/13/18.
Golden-brass body is almost clear and topped by an off-white head that falls steadily to cover.
Pine, cereal and grapefruit share nicely in the nose, with ripe pineapple emerging on the end.
Pine, floral and spruce notes mirror the nose, initially, with a big, malty body but still appropriate attenuation. Cereal, honey and light, fairly engaging carbonation lead to yellow fruit, spicy hop character and a touch of bready malt. Very supple, soft, deep malts throughout are a highlight with a good blend of PNW hops that don't go overboard on resin. Quite a nice NE-WC hybrid, tending more to the WC side.
