Enjoyed on tap at Emporium Arcade Bar in Chicago, IL. I went on naming alone when choosing this one, and I'm happy I did because it was pretty damn good. I didn't take tasting notes, but remember this being nicely hopped with a bitter finish, as well as grassy notes. Good stuff from this growing brewery.

Draft taster at the brewery ($9 for four 4-oz tasters, and the pours are a bit on the generous side). Big ’catbox" and pineapple smell which I would not have associated with Summits so much as Amarillo. Hazy brass color with a ring of light foam. Citrus and pine hop bomb on my tongue, palate, even my teeth. Yet I just want to slurp this down, maybe just to get this beer over with?A milder lemon note at the back of my sample.
