Can shared by CLW--thanks, Chris! Lightly hazy golden yellow, light sparkle, ring of head, trace lacing. Aroma is citrus, pine, hint of tart fruit, cracker. Taste is strong pine, milder citrus, bread. Smooth, fairly thin, texture, soft carbonation. dry, crisp, finish as taste. Good for style.

16 oz can. 10/27/25. Aroma is soft honey malt, light herb. No pine. Pine in the flavor is lightly. No resin. Pretty respectable balance of malt and herbal hops. This may be West Coast, but it’s not obnoxious.

16 oz can. Aroma is deep, roasted coffee, and chicory. Flavor follows with chocolate malt, and a near vanilla hint. Nice boulder body with a smooth texture over the palate. The coffee, chicory, vanilla are very nice. Hidden alcohol. Great flavor!

16 oz can. Aroma is straw, melon, white grape. Flavor follows with maybe the addition of some grapefruit. Go to Rea fruits with a very soft, grapefruit bitterness. Just a touch for balance. May e a hint of alcohol. Pretty good.

Can (9/12/24) from Andover Classic Wines. Hazy, dark yellow with tons of sparkle, head with nice retention and soapy lacing. Aroma is citrus, light evergreen (combination of pine over spruce), dinner roll. Taste is citrus over pine with late mild spruce. Smooth texture, soft carbonation, crisp finish. More like a conventional West Coast IPA (pre-bitter obsession). Spruce is disappointingly sparse.

4 oz draft. Deep red appearance. Aroma shows mild toffee, weak fruit. Flavor shows a decent amount of citrus hop character. Maybe leafy green hops. Simple, straight forward ale.

16 oz can. Dated: 12/21/23. Aroma of cinnamon and chocolate malt. This was sitting on a warm shelf, not in the cooler. Nothing wrong with it, but the vanilla did not survive. Very soft cinnamon in the finish.

4 oz draft. Aroma and flavor are identical. Great roasted malt backbone with a soft, yet lingering amount of coffee. Nice body with a smooth texture.

5 oz draft. Even when warm there is no aroma. Flavor is a standard Pilsner. Bread malt, honey like sweetness and a very light grassy bitterness. Crisp texture.
