On tap at Liars club. Hazy golden with good white head. All hops and earthy pine on the nose. Rich on the palate and smooth. Bitter, and citrus fruity with great length of flavors. Pleasant aftertaste. Very nice.
Coppery color. Nice head. Very astringent. Nice and sticky like a hop monster should be! If you are trying Green Flash, heres your starting and finishing Line.
