This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy pale orange color with a one and a half finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Light lacing speckles the sides and slides into the beer.
The smell starts off with some citrus running into some caramel malts nicely.
The flavor was moderately sweet with an ample amount of bitterness combining and tasting nice. There’s a little bit of citrus aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a little bit of carbonation hitting just right. Good bitterness to lead the harsh side of things.
Overall, I was expecting it to be one of those \"rolling rock\" type beers (I see XPA and think that), however, after a little bit of warming, it’s definitely a pretty good APA, better than I expected, I’d have this again.

Can at home in CT. Picked up over the weekend in VT. Pours cloudy, rich gold with a creamy off-white head. The aroma holds crackery pale malts, citrus peel, faint pine. Light-medium sweet flavorbwith dry and lightly grainy pale malts, melon, peach, nectarine, lemon peel, some pith, grass, pine needles. Medium bodied with average carbonation. More citrusy hops in the finish, mellow piney bitterness, some dusty pine, crackery pale malts. Just OK overall.
