What Our Editors Thought
Citrus and tropical hops in the nose maintain a subtlety, balanced with a touch of malt. On the palate, Immediately engaging tropical and citrus notes resolve into a touch of bitter tropical bitter funk, obscuring the bright simplicity.
What Our Panel Thought
Complex hop character from the aroma through the finish, heavy on white pepper, ginger, citrus peel; faint dank hint. Low-key light lager character—dry, crisp, with lingering bitterness that avoids harshness. Leans into aggressive American hops but balances it with the best qualities of light lagers.
What the Brewers Say
A Boulder-style sessionable pale lager with Citra, Amarillo, El Dorado.
