Poured with a beautiful amber head.
And a nice color ale. Not clear and not cloudy. Almost thought it was unfiltered.
Nice flavor.
Only bought one on a recent road trip, I wish I bought more.

Been a couple years since I had this one and glad I rediscovered it. Really great pale ale with the perfect balance malt to hop bitterness. Gives the classic west coast pale ale / IPA vibes and reminds me of a Dogfish 60 min.

On tap at Capital Ale with Randy Love. A pretty tan. I'd serve this right next to Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. A good bit of bite, but also a nice malt undertone.

malty , nice IPA flavor, without overly bitter or bites taste. Enjoying this thus far, would bring this to a enjoy. Nice caramel color in glass. Very nice beer, not for those searching for overly tropical or deep flavors.

This is a full tasting, satisfying ale. Lots of hops, Not too bitter. Wish we could get this in the mid-Atlantic states, but I don't think they come up this far.

This is a great, complex beer. It pours the color of a brand new penny with a thin white head. The smell is hoppy with grapefruit and bitter orange zest. The taste is bitter and grape-fruity at first, but this your mouth fills with a beautiful floral bouquet. The mouth feel is smooth but not rough, somewhere in between, like a REAL craft beer. This is great beer!
