On tap at the brewery. Aroma is fairly hop forward with some light biscuit and cracker malt notes in the background. Moderately strong citrus notes with some lemon-lime character and some orange and grapefruit as well. Light passion fruit and mango notes. Hints of resin. Pours a rather hazy, dull golden straw color with a medium small head that lingers nicely. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a medium light sweetness with medium to medium light cracker and biscuit malt notes. Moderately strong hop notes with citrus dominating, but some light passion fruit, mango and resin as well. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice, tasty pale ale. Good, balanced malt backbone but it allows the hop profile to shine nicely in both the flavor and aroma.

Tap. Pours very hazy golden, small white head, good lacing. Aroma of muted dankness, hints of green garlic, pine, pot, grass. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter. Medium body. Solid, but the hops are starting to fade a bit.
