Pours a clear orange-gold color with a medium white head that evaporates quickly to a wispy film. Short strings of lace. The aroma consists of floral hops, fruit and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hops, citrus and bready malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short grassy and floral hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can from de Bierliefhebber, canned 01/31/17. Almost clear yellow color, medium rocky head. Bit tropical fruit, bit candy and cookie. Medium bitterness, candy sweetness, slight grainy note. Even after a year old, this is very decent stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Ponto Session IPA on 01 Apr 2018 at 16:53 - Score: 7.

Poured up on tap at The Attic where it exhibits a near clear deep gold body that supports a bright white head of foam that leaves behind some sheet lacing. Nice. Served way too damn icy cold by the way. The aroma offers up a thin hit of malts and then an inviting spicy onion dankness and pine hops. The taste delivers a smooth introduction to thin malt sweetness and growing spicy bitter danky goodness. The bitterness grows to firm levels as bitter pine hoppiness joins in. Damn fine brew.

Sampled from the tap at Aces n Ales Tenaya Way. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces. Aroma is pine forward supported by resin and grass with a grain backbone. Flavor is similar with grass and pine throughout and a light resin and grain backing.
