Poured from a 16 oz can dated March 03, 2025.
Aroma is moderately hoppy and citrus forward with notes of grapefruit, lime, tangerine, and tropical citrus. Hints of passion fruit and pineapple with light dank, oily resin notes. Light cracker malt and alcohol notes.
Pours a very clear, brilliant, gold color with a large, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers in clumps on the edges.
Flavor is somewhat sweet with medium light cracker malt notes. Medium high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong citrus hop notes with quite a bit of orange, tangerine, like and grapefruit. Lighter notes of passion fruit. Moderate woody, dank, resinous notes that linger in the finish.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid pale ale. Really nice fruity citrus hop notes that work well with the malt profile. Balanced bitterness and well hidden alcohol. Somewhat crisp mouthfeel makes for a really easy drinking pale ale.
