Hazy gold with an enormous fluffy head that lingered forever and left great lacing. Sweet with a tropical fruit Jolly Rancher candy note. Long finish. Medium body.

7.1/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7.5 Flavor 6.5 Texture 7 Overall 7
Gyllengul klar vätska med vitt gräddfluffigt skumlock. Aromer av citrus och en bekant humlearom, möjligen Simcoe. Inslag av grape, kåda och tallbarr. Doften avrundas med aningens ljust bröd och degighet.
Markerad men lite tunn maltkropp. Obalanserad åt det beska hållet. Tiden är mogen för en återgång till old-school-västkust. Bryggarens intention var bra men Spinal Tap rusade in och drog beskan långt förbi elva, på den tiogradiga skalan.
