Bottle. Pours a hazy golden, small tan head. Aroma is malt, some touches of hops and grapefruit, hiding in the background is a touch of yeast. Sweet malt, hops and yeast are the flavor profile. Dry and bitter finish.

12 ounce purchased at Bottle Barn. Flora and perfume in aroma. Golden body. Tasty pale ale but not as much a knock out as other HOD beers. Their problem or mine? Enjoyable beer even if my expectations are not always realistic.

Bottle. Poured golden with a fluffy, small white head. Leaves some lacing. Aroma is earthy, grassy, and hempy. The flavor follows suit with a touch of sweetness at the start. No bitterness is present, and it finishes a bit watery. This didn’t impress me, but it is different from any other pale ale I’ve had.

Pours a cloudy light orange with a thin white head. The aroma smells of spruce with a sweetness to it,somewhat floral and citrusy. Maybe a slight hint of pineapple in the aroma as well. the flavor isn’t bitter, but definitely grassy, floral and well balanced.

Pours a hazy orange with 1/2 inch white head. Light hop aroma with orange and malt. There is a sweetness to the taste along with bitter hops with a dry chalky finish. This isn’t a bad beer but it just didn’t do anything for me.

Bottle sample at a tasting. Thanks zvikar. Hazy orange color. Aroma is piney with some resin and light cookie notes. Balanced flavor with pine, some pomelo, grapefruit and sweet, slightly biscuity malt. Medium-bodied.

Resin hop and malt aroma. Cloudy orange color with a small white head. Mild bitter that fades slowly. Weak palate.

Murky dark orange hue with foamy tan head, smells of straw grain and bit of orange, medium body, a little bit of a funky grain barnyard to sour aftertaste, decent but a bit old or unfresh

At a tasting, thanks Zvikar, no head, murky light orange colour, aroma of yeast, mushrooms and some weak fruit. strong bitterness with fruity traces but overall bland tasting. A bit of a let down.
