From the can. Hay and lemon aromas. Soft with hay, toasted nuts and bready sourdough and pumpernickel before the lasting bitter earth finish. Does not improve as it warms.

Can sample at a tasting at Alexey & Raphaela’s place. Thanks Alexey & Raphaela. Clear golden. Stale hops aroma. Flavor has sweetish malt, and bitter stale hops. Medium-bodied. Less than two months old, but already not fresh enough.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Cigarette City. Appearance is cloudy light brown/dark orange (like a thick apple cider) with good sparkle, finger-width beige head with poor retention and nice sudsy lacing. Aroma is bready malt with fruit. Taste is bready malt with caramel, slight fruit, some alcohol. Palate is medium-to-full bodied with thick texture and average to lively carbonation. Overall, not terribly complex but a good fit for the style.

On tap at Vermont Tap House, Williston, VT.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a glossy burnt orange to yellow color with a thin white foamy head that dissipated immediately.
The smell had bittersweet orange, lemon and melon combining nicely.
The taste was pretty much the same. Light citrusy aftertaste. Semi-dry on the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation runs light. Good bitterness on my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a nice AIPA that I could have again.
