I had this on-tap in an imperial pint glass at the Lake City Way brewery.
Appearance: medium orange with a light haze and a finger of creamy ivory foam. Not bad!
Smell: lightly hoppy, but not with a ton of personality. Perhaps served a bit too cold?
Taste: bitter and hoppy right up front. Hops are resiny and a little citrusy. Malt is definitely second fiddle to the hops here.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and a great creaminess. Love it!
Overall: a pretty drinkable IPA despite its raspy bitterness. I could drink a few of these refreshing guys!

Served in a shaker pint glass. Pours a hazy golden amber with a one finger off-white head with good retention and lacing. Aroma of caramel malt and citrus hops, pleasant. Flavor follows with a quite nice caramel malt body with light fruit juice and citrus and grassy hops. Medium bodied. Although no hop bomb, this was nicely balanced and the hop flavors were good. A nice American IPA and my second good beer from this brewery.
