Canned November 6th 2019. Ooops.
Pours a hazy orange gold with a massive head of foam. Lacing is good.
I get some fruity citrus notes in the smell along some caramel sweetness. The latter IS a bit off but considering the age of the beer and it was on a warm shelf, I will give it some leeway.
Yep, the taste reflects the age. Being a Pale Ale, I expected the hop level of bitterness would suffer, and it did; it's only 5% abv. There's some hint of of tropical fruit going on. I reckon that this would be quite good when fresh.
Good mouthfeel.
Hopefully, I will run into a fresh 6er at some point in the future.

Growler fill form Albertsons. Dark golden pour with adeqaute foamy head. Aroma starts with a hint of caramel malts before being overcome by astringent, citric hops. Taste follows through in this vein, all citrus peel, bitter bite. All signs of the malts are gone. Dries out a bit in the finish too.

On Tap at the Boise brewery/taproom Clear medium amber with a thin soapy light tan head. Light toasted malts, an amber like quality. Muted soft fruity hop aroams and flavors. modest bitterness and a general slightly sweet woody malt body. Smooth and a little hefty, but the hops dont jump out at you.
