Gravity @ gbbf, medium sample. Clear golden color, short head. Aroma of fruity hop, bit pine, bit grapefruit, bit flowery. Medium bitter in taste, slight dry. Nothing out of the ordinary, but pretty ok.

12oz bottle pours a clear dark gold with some clumpy white head. Nose is fairly mild, dried citrus zest, pine, hay. Flavor is stronger, pithy, orange zest, lemon zest, dried pine needles, some malt, something a little medicinal. Full, zesty finish. Not quite all there.

Bottle. Sour barley malt and light citrus hops aroma. Golden yellow with large head. Grainy barley malt and moderate bitter citrus peel/quinine finish. Pretty good - like the malt profile in this one.
