Lagunitas Born Yesterday Pale Ale

This fresh hop unfiltered pale ale is from the Lagunitas Brewing Company of Petaluma, California (and now with a brewery in Chicago, Illinois). It is 7.7% ABV.

The beer pours a clear, dark golden. There is a half inch of white to off-white foam. The aroma is tropical, mango skin, mango, passion fruit, guava. The taste hits the same tropical notes as found in the aroma, sweet, with a moderately bitter finish. The beer drinks smooth and soft with light carbonation.
