• Pour: It pours a murky, caramel-golden hue with frothy, bright white, 1-finger head with good retention and sticky lacing.
• Nose: The nose of the Pit Stop is very fruity, funky, and hoppy.  There are aromas of fresh apricots, mango, pineapple, lemon juice, lemon zest, tart wheat, horse blanket, leather, and light pine.
• Taste: The taste follows the nose.  It is very fruity, hoppy, and funky.  There are notes of fresh apricots, lemon juice, lemon zest, tangerine, mango, passion fruit, pineapple, barnyard funk, and floral hops.
• Mouthfeel: Light to medium-bodied with moderate carbonation, the mouthfeel of the Pit Stop is very tangy, crisp, and sharp with a dry, bitter finish.

Overall pairing: The punchy, tart, hoppy flavors of Uinta's Pit Stop Kettle-Soured Apricot IPA are great for the rock and roll energy and fun of the Ramones!  The bomber sized bottle is great for the double-album length as well!

Cheers!!
