On tap at the Mesa, AZ location where it exhibits a clear copper body that supports a dirty white head that leaves behind spotty lacing. The serving temperature was too cold for this light hoppy ale but not as frigid as almost all other ale offerings I’ve had at a Bj’s to date. Are they starting to understanding serving temperature issues finally? I’m doubtful. The aroma offers up malts, crystal malts sweetness, faint citrus to somewhat pine resiny hop notes. The taste starts with a pleasing mix of malts and hoppiness that is tangelo and grapefruit and then quickly getting into growing citrus hop bitterness. This is a very tasty session brew with enough body and hoppiness to keep this interesting.
