14 oz. draft at Rel’ lish burger bar, Seattle Airport. Aroma is bright citrus and soft pine. Flavor is a mirror with a dry texture. Very light pine bitterness. Actually this is a classic, well made pale ale!

Pint can from Total Wine Spokane. A glowing yellow-orange pour with a small white head, plenty of haze. Nice lacing throughout. Aroma is rich citrus hops and lightly sweet. Tastes sweet up front with a light bitter finish. Citrus all the way. Has a little grapefruit tang to it, which I really enjoyed.

Pint can. Golden pour with a large, persistent white head. Thick sheets of lacing throughout the glass. Aroma is a bit subdued citrus and floral hops. Flavor is a bit earthy, lightly sweet, and finished crisp with lingering bitters. Earthy floral hops, bits of grass, and faint citrus.

From a 16oz can, deep clear copper pour, thin brief white head. Some light carmelized malt in the aroma along with smooth subtle piney hop character. More of the subtle smoth resinous hops and a full palate. Very nice.
