12 oz. Aroma is cantaloupe, pineapple, citrus rind, honeysuckle. Pours clear golden with lots of floaties underneath a one finger bone-white head with great retention. Taste has a moderate to high pithy bitterness. Not bad, but Hop Country was a lot better.

On tap at Kingston Ale House. Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has citrus rind and pine with a hint of resin and light grain backing. Flavor has a nice pine with some growing citrus rind supported by sweet grains and grass underlying.

Dark brown colour, harmonious aroma of roasted malt and coffee. Smooth mouthfeel, the roastiness is prominent and sharp, but with elegance; gentle fruit.
Very good.

8.4% pale ale? What were they thinking? Really good, and pale indeed.

Tap @ DC Kanda. Pours hazy orange, white foam on the top. Nose is quite fruity, basically what you would expect from a hazy one. Fruity, light chalk, tropical. Taste is relatively malt-forward, was expecting something a bit different. Not bad but not really great either.
