Apperance: The beer has a slightly foggy amber color, an off-white head with little lacing but some curtains. (4) Aroma: The smell is intensely american hops infused, citric, grape-fruit, floral, pine needles and resin. (4) Taste: The taste is on the other hand a bit washed-out, the citrics are there as the hoppy flavors in general. But lacking the malty stamina of american IPAs, (3.5) Palate: Medium high carbonation, a rather small body, almost watery. A sharp dry finish. (3) Overall: The smell is very intense, but the taste lacks some fruity and malty vibes. A very aleish lager anyway. (3.5)
