Pours a crystal clear orange to copper color. Head is small and white, carbonation level is low and nice for style. Nose is big citrusy hops nice. Flavor is malty and feels hot from alcohol for a bit then the drying effect happens. Mouthfeel is dry and then drier. Finish is long and dry. If you like IPAs, this beer is for you.

Served in a Motorhead IPA pint glass at the brewpup....

Appears dark orange-red with minimal off white head. Strong hoppy aroma consisits of grapefruit, orange peels, and some pine. Faint alcohol presence to the nose as well. Taste is overall smooth. Grapefuit and other citrous hop flavors dominate the flavor while a hint of sweet malt makes an attempt at equilibrium. There is a musty feel to this brew that makes it taste older than it is. Hard to explain, but it enhances the flavor. Finish is fully of piney hop resins that coat your mouth and leave a crisp aftertaste. IPA is one of my favorite styles, and this one did not disappoint.
