Brassy and mostly
clear, my beer arrived with a thin covering of white head. To my nose,
there were lots of juicy citrus notes, some bitterness, and a touch of
tinniness. That pattern was replicated in the flavour--fruity and hoppy,
with nice balance. Tangerine notes make for a mellow ale.
I
was surprised by the listing on the bar menu that this stuff had only
26 IBUs, because it seemed much more bitter. Very nice pale ale, and a
good shoutout to San Diego legend Tony Gwynn. and his amazing 1994 season. This tasty brew proved to be a frequent companion during my week in San Diego.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
