Poured up on tap at the brewery where it exhibits a clear copper body that supports a thin white head of foam. The aroma offers up full on pine hoppiness mildly nuanced by a thin malt sensation. The taste delivers firm levels of resiny pine hops and a sticky malt infused pine sap sensation. Wow. Kick your teeth in kind of pine hoppiness. Into the finish a thin sweet citrus candy sensation joins in to help create a counter to the firm level of pine hops. Solid sipper.

Sampled from the tap at the North Park location. Pours a clear orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has notes of dank pine and grapefruit with some earthy grains underlying. Flavor has a combination of strong pine, resin and onion with sweet grains backing.

On draft at Tap 25. It pours a clear medium golden color with an off white head. The aroma is very sweet and honeyed with some toffee notes and Honey Nut Cheerios. Hints of peachy hops. The flavor is malty with more of the sweet cereal-like Honey Nut Cheerios and floral hops. Too thick and sweet for me. The regular version of this beer was infinitely better.

Sample at the Aces & Ales Winter Beer Fest on 01/18/2015. The beer is a slightly hazy reddish-amber color with a thin off-white head that diminishes quickly to a sparse wispy film. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Full-bodied with a dank hoppy character and flavors of pine and grainy malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a resiny hops aftertaste. Above average overall.
