Notes:

Descriptors: musky, pine, yellow sprees

Nice tight bubbles lacing fairly well to the glass (sticky). More of a earthy musky hop smell, thinking forest or mild pine. A fresh glass smells just like yellow sprees. Fairly bitter, maybe a tad too bitter for the ABV (I go back and forth on this). It’s possible the quinoa is helping with head retention, it’s decent with this beer without any carapils.
