Can (3/5/20) pour from Harvest Market, Bedford (R.I.P.). Appearance is clear light brown-yellow with light, lazy sparkle, finger-width foamy off-white head with fair retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong fruit (apricot), caramel sweetness, pine (pine fades as it warms). Taste is a mirror of aroma, though pine hangs around a bit more. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and sweet finish as taste. Overall, kind of a retro (2014?) experience with malt high in the mix (as advertised) and a surprising lack of expected characteristics from those hops. That being said, there's nothing wrong with it and I haven't had anything like it in quite some time so it is sort of a welcome change.

16 oz. can shared by tfontana, proper social distancing at 14 feet away on my back porch. Aroma is apricot, sweet malt, yeast. Flavor is a direct duplicate. Malt is more dominant and hops. On the sweet side.
