Sampled from the tap at the Elmhurst location. Pours a clear gold with an orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has citrus rind and slightly earthy pine and a light grain backbone. Flavor has slightly dank citrus and rind with some earth pine and grain backing.

Sample at Porch Growler. Clear copper-gold color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of herbal hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, grapefruit and toasty malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

16oz can. Nice aroma, Citra is an unfortunate hop addition, kind of streamlines it out in not such a West Coast way. Has some mellow bitterness, malt balance. ood.

Aromas are nice blend of citrus pit, resin, malt and a bit of MJ. Flavors are similar to nose, bittersweet up front going more bitter later. Decent body and slightly soft carbonation. Think it would have been better with stronger carbonation. Still decent. But not great.
