Draft - Stone fruit and barrel notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Woody and some fruit with a touch of booze and bitterness.

Can at share. Pale golden, spotty head. Aroma is equal parts malts and hops. Taste amps up the hops a bit, drying a bit, more astringent. More pale ale to my palate.

Kind of surprised at this beer as the dates on the can say that it's not too old however I don't pick up much fresh hops I get mostly some musty grain and not much else. Flavor I do get a little hop some sweet pale malt Carbonic Tang nothing too outstanding good body Bittersweet finish

12oz can from Chris. Canned on 4/13/18. Poured into small tuliped pint glass. Head is medium and pretty atop a clear gold body. Just a really solid beer. A malt backbone with no sweetness but a white bread heft to a simple but wonderful hoppiness. It is a little green, lightly bitter and fresh with no hop off flavors. Why is it so hard to make a beer this simple and good?

12 ounce can. Pours a clear orange hue with a small white head. A nice smooth citrus nose. Big resin, oranges, a bit of sugary sweet base. Really smooth, very flavorful. Damn good.
