Dry, with a little caramel, hops, and tropical action going on. It grows on you. 5.5% abv

I love this beer, one of the most bold, hoppy Pales out there, big pine and citrus, that dank and onion, garlic hop profile, easy drinking, so tasting, Very good

I strongly recommend a hard pour into a nice class for this beer. It is extremely pungent (in a good way) and a mild aeration gives it a much more balanced flavor profile.

Strong grass and green onion. Not your average pale ale. Hoping it pairs well with the sous vide tri tip roast I'm about to sear over mesquite charcoal.

Grunion by Ballast Point. Big citrus nose but actually much more pine on the front end. Citrus comes through on the end. Much better than Big Eye.
