On tap at R & B, pours a clear golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out gentle piney hops and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is quite bitter and dry, with a somewhat herbal and piney hop character upfront, with a crisp biscuity malt base. A bit too herbal, bordering on vegetal, but it's reasonably executed.

Draught at the brewery
Dark blond coloir, clear. Dry, lean, with some crisp malts, very light biscuit, resins without much more hop brightness.
As described and as expected from a liquor store: West coast style but keeping it simple.

Golden and bright. Not much head, though. Mild hop spiciness, but the pale malts are really heavy for a 5% pale. Seems underattenuated to me. It ends up just being sticky and lacking brightness.
