Lightly hazy with light head retention, smells of fresh pine, grapefruit, and herbal hops. The taste is crisp and resinous, with flavors of toasted bread, pine sap, and caramel on a smooth medium body. The finish is long and moderately bitter, featuring notes of pine, grapefruit pith, lime peel, a little more pine, and herbal hops. Overall, I get that pine trees and Christmas are essentially synonymous, but this one just feels too one-dimensional. Perhaps a hint of cinnamon or clove or different hops? Evergreen Blaze comes to mind as a better version of this idea.
