On tap at the brewery
A - creamy ivory head caps a hazed pale amber colored beer
S - juicy, floral hops with caramel malt. Mango, Mandarin orange, pineapple, passion fruit all in the mix
T - juicy tropical hops pair well with a nice malt backbone. Notes of passion fruit, mango, pineapple, orange zest, mild pine, caramel, honey, toasty grain all present with nice balance
M - medium body, ample carbonation, finishes bittersweet and semi-dry
O - very solid American IPA. I'd definitely drink this again.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25
Appearance: Pours a crystal clear copper color with a two finger head; excellent stickage and a whole lotta lacing going on

Smell: A very unusual blend of fruit and malt tones here, with orange, mango, pineapple and banana detected; there is an herbal and piney edge that joins a treacle element

Taste: The treacle lays down the base, with the fruit flavors bursting forward, bringing orange and mango to the fore, with pineapple and banana tones underneath; after the swallow, the bitterness builds somewhat, with the herbal and piney tones adding a raw edge

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: Quite an interesting beverage here - don't think I have ever tasted anything quite like it; has elements of a hoppy amber as well as of a new style IPA

Thanks, darktronica, for the opportunity

Got this beer as an extra; nice surprise.

Really solid offering. If they could tighten up the finish this would be a beast!!

A- Dark orange/light red hued body with a dense inch-tall white head. Decent head retention, splotchy lacing.

S- Bright citrus aromas...oranges, tangerines.

T- Taste follows the nose. citrus-tinged hops but not over the top, well balanced with the malt backbone. Would guess damn near the stated 6.9%abv.

M- Very soft carbonation. Medium to medium/light mouthfeel.

D/O- I could see how easily this could be someone's "go-to" IPA. These guys have some of the best label artwork out there...and their beers are pretty good too! ;) Thanks for the trade Pablobomb.

Found the brewery while in town on business this is the 1st taste of this IPA and it is very good. Pours into a pint glass nice head that fades but leaves nice lacing. Poured a cooper color with nice hop taste. A little bitterness but not overpowering just right for my taste buds.
I would buy a 6 pack of it was offered on my area.
