12-oz. can. Pours a perfectly clear medium amber. Loose, sudsy white head sticks around for a while after a massive, surging, creamy white head blows out the top of the glass. Loose eggy-looking lace. Nice big piney nose with apricot undertones. Creamy medium body, bit of crispness to it thanks to the carb. Caramel, a bit of dough, and plenty of pine and apricot on the mid-palate. Refreshing and drinkable. Nice APA.

If you’re going for the gold you probably aren’t looking for complexity. This one’s right down the middle and will work in a pinch.

Can from Scrizzz. Thanks, Clint!
Pours a semi-dense amber with a lively body and a healthy yet hollow white head. Nose is sweet and toasted bread with bits of malty orange and roasted nut rounded out with buttery popcorn. Flavor is a hoppy, toasted nut with roasted butter in the finish, along with notes of sweetish corn flakes and bready fruit. Nice, lingering finish. Overall, a very nice and approachable pale.

Pours Orange. Nose is citrus hops and toasted grain. Mild fruit sweetness. Flavor is a crisp toastiness and a very mild orangey flavor. Little to no hop bitterness. Very drinkable pale.

Bottle from Sam’s. Pours bright hazy golden with eggy white head and nice lacing. Looks bottle conditioned. Hops mild on the nose; more honey, sweet malts, some sweet bread, canned peaches. Bit of grain/cereal. Light drinker. Seems like it would work well on a hot summer day with food.
