Pretty much what the brewery's description describes: Slight sweet at first with good carbonation and and a little growing bitterness towards the end. Good body and finish. Tasty beer.

Can (4/28/20) pour from Friar Tuck, Crestwood. Appearance is lightly hazy, golden yellow with tons of sparkle, 2-finger width white foamy head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is lemony citrus and pine, milder late tropical fruit. Taste is more piney bitter than anything else (Hello, C hops) but tropical notes and citrus sneak through; cracker malts. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin texture, soft carbonation and fairly dry, crisp finish. Overall, piney bitter West Coast IPA roots show off more than anything but some fruit becomes apparent. A bit thin. Good strength of aroma and flavor for an APA but would have liked a little more malt presence.

Can picked up at Kihoskh, shared at home with the Mrs - pours a almost clear golden colour with a thin white head. Citrus fruity with some notes of orange and grapefruit, light caraml in the pale malty backing, light resinous hoppy bitter into the finish.
