Appearance: clear pale gold with two fingers of fluffy ivory head, excellent retention and moderate lacing. (5/5) Aroma: resiny pine, citrus, caramel, floral. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, high bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium oily body, moderate carbonation, off-dry lingering and building bitter finish. (4/5)
Damn, that’s good. Pretty much what it says on the label, in fact: resiny goodness. Very West Coast-ish, and good fun. No, it’s not Pliny – but it’s also less than half the price. If I lived in the Excited States, this would have a permanent presence in my fridge. (17/20)
