Very clearly an attempt to ape Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, but not successful. Wort notes add a funkiness to the caramel malt, and the hops have an underlying acrid note in addition to the ample pine. Just stick with SNPA.

Fairly crisp and clear golden and peach coloured body with a relatively thick, three to four centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat for a while and provides a billowy barrier to the body. Aroma of crisp and very dry hop elements with a very small hit of alpha acids and grasses and a stronger note of flowers, resin and biscuity malts. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong dry and grassy hop flavours show at first with a soft bite of bitterness and a stronger punch of malts that provide a small body for the relatively strong hop flavours that are crisp and drying. Aftertaste show off the hops nicely with a slight grainy bite from the malts and only a tiny bit of citrus fruit note from lemons, with more of a bready and biscuity bite from the yeast and malts. Overall, a decent enough APA that hits the marks nicely for the style while providing some bitterness, a good malt backbone and a touch of body and yeastiness for complexity. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Whole Foods in Charleston, South Carolina, yesterday, on 28-December-2021 for US$2,99 sampled on the streets of Savannah, Georgia on 29-December-2021 with my family.

Bright orange with a large foamy head that lingered. Bitter with strong leafy fruity hops and an herbal note. Long finish. Medium body.
