This pours
hazy orange with light, fluffy head and active bubbles. There is only a little
bit of lacing, but the retention is good. The nose is fresh and smells a lot
like orange citrus with a little bit of graininess. There is enough of a crisp,
bitter bite in the flavor…but a surprising amount of cereal malt in the
aftertaste to balance it out. I like that the malt is presence, but not in a
sweet syrupy way. This beer is very “approachable”. It’s easy to have a couple,
and I feel like even a not-so-adventurous beer drinker could enjoy one. This is
like a pumped up Sierra Nevada’s Pale Ale, very west coast in style and
appearance.
My Rating: B+/4.0
