12oz bottle. Old School APA. Not that impressive ever, and certainly not even close to par for 2017. Unfiltered murky orange-amber body. Thin, creamy, off-white head. Old school Ringwood style yeast tones...earthy, caramel, sweet. Resinous, but not that much hop depth. Drinkable I suppose, but not what I’m looking for in an APA.

Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a decent looking golden copper color body with a decent half finger white foamy head that simmered down to a nice adequate milky looking film of a lacing speckling the glass.
The smell had a decent amount of citric like hops but also a balanced amount of caramel malts.
The taste was sweet through the malts and the hops but still carried a decent amount of bitterness to allow a pervasive bitterness on my taste buds.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium with a fair sessionability about it. The carbonation was actually smoother than most APA’s I’ve had, still no worries.
Overall, not a bad APA, just not one that shows enough to go bonkers about.
