Had at the Brewery as part of the flight of 5 beers.Described as a "Hoppy Hazy Unfiltered IPA with American 2 row Munich Dark & Light malt. HEAVILY hopped with Centennial & Equinox". Didn't seem particularly hazy, but definitely hopped with a strong bitterness on the finish.

On tap.
A creamy white head that fades after a moment. Some whispy lacing with decent strength throughout the pint. A hazy, golden-orange in color. Very pulpy in appearance.
The aromas are of grapefruit, hop oil, and other citrus hints. The aromatics give off a very juicy impression.
A big hop flavor (given a hand by the 100+ IBUs); very oily, resiny, etc. Lemon citrus with a hint of tart grapefruit. A big hop bitterness leading to a strong, yet pleasant aftertaste.
Full bodied; A bit grainy, but given the amount of hops it's very understandable. Velvet-like on the palate.
Easy to consume, but a bit overpowering in terms of bitterness, and the high abv% to have more than a few at a time. Very reminiscent of Smuttynose's IPA IMO, but lacking a little something to push it to that level.
