A lighter golden pour, a touch cloudy. Head is good looking with a mixture of large and small bubbles. Lacing is slick.

Hosp are present here for sure. Citrus and green pine, floral. Somewhat husky as well. Malt is overpowered in the aroma...

...and the taste. While the hops don't demand an IPA labeling, the malt is not putting up much of a fight. It's the under card here. Soft toasted biscuit, some caramel. But its dampening makes this beer lighter to drink. A husky aftertaste prevents me from just pounding this. A good beer for porch or with dinner

Serving type: on-tap

I had this one earlier this afternoon at the brewery. Poured a somewhat cloudy bronze color, with a lingering beige head. Very hop forward, with aromas of citrusy hops and pine. On the palate, this one was light to medium bodied, with biscuity malt, citrus zest and piney hops. A very hop centric and delicious pale.
