Thanks to largadeer for this tick.

Growler pours clear golden with a one finger white head that fades to a thin film.

The aroma is hoppy, believe it or not, with citrus and herbal notes, and a bready malt character behind it.

The flavor is interesting, rather biscuity and bready, with an average hop bite. Earthy with orange and grapefruit.

Medium-light bodied and crisp with good hop oils and very high drinkability.

Not quite Alpine’s best, but enjoyable as always.

Serving type: growler

A: poured a golden orange in color with yellow highlights and a nice half finger of head that left some good bubbly lacing sticking to the glass.

S: very nice bouquet of citrus components such as lemon zest and grapefruit upfront in the aroma with sweet bready malt character, hints of spice, grain notes, tropical fruit presence and nice piney hops

T: the tropical fruits were more evident on the palate alongside the piney citrusy hoppy flavor, nice lemony grapefruit zing, good sweet bready malt balance, a touch of spice and pineapple undertones.

M: the brew was medium in body with a good amount of carbonation which had a hoppy, piney, citrusy, slightly fruity, bready malty, semi sweet and mild bitter finish.

O: I thought it was a solid alpine pale ale, nothing extraordinary but was a decent beer.

Pours a clear golden with a nearly white head that lingers longer than any other Alpine I've had yet. The fine foam laces the edges of the glass asymmetrically. Piney nose that was barely noted over the soap perfume on my hands (I had just excused myself to the wash room and, of course, I washed my hands before returning). Mouthfeel is full, smooth, and cottony. Mild pine features and some notes of peat. Excellent example of an APA.

Dark brown in the pint glass. Starts out malty with a fairly rich flavor. Tangy with modest carbonation and minimal head. Hops are quite aromatic but not particularly bitter. Some warm flavors of roasted barley. Slightly sweet maltiness. Tart and bitter aftertaste. Thin body. A touch of perfume and flowers in the aroma.

On tap at the Pizza Port Ocean Beach. Has a nice aromatic hop flavor to start but is not very rewarding for a big quaff.
