Aroma: “Peach, apricot, orange, strawberry, grapefruit, pine sap, with a slightly grassy, green cucumber, and onion aroma mingling all together.”
Flavor: “Grapefruit is more pronounced in the flavor, but the pine is still there. Slight grassy or vegetal note. Bitterness is pronounced and a little pithy, but not harsh. Finish draws on both the flavor and bitterness of the hops. Fairly dry, but there’s a light candy sweetness in the mid-palate.”
Overall: “An interesting and tasty balance of hops-derived citrus and earthy and piney characteristics.”
