Slightly hazed orange color covered with a creamy layer of foam. Aroma definitely has a lemony, almost minty brightness to it. Juicy citrus flesh, pineapple, leafy hops, and resin. Brisk, juicy hop flavor: lemony sweetness, grass, pine, and dried apricots. Very fruity and bright. Crisp, medium body. Juicy, zesty, and a little bit different than other IPAs.

Golden orange colored beer with a bubbly, soapy white head. Once the head subsides there's a lumpy foam ring remaining around the surface and sheety lace forms all around the glass. Aroma is juicy tropical, pineapple, peach, candy lemon with a clean malt profile. Clean and crisp with a good amount of hoppy goodness... Taste is also very clean with a tropical hoppy edge. Briskly bitter, bright, fluffy, engaging... Very refreshing. Prickly carbonation and semi chewy texture. This is another good one in the series!

Really nice nose on this one, but smelling is deceiving. Not much flavor. Bitter, but that's about it.

Was really looking forward to this one. Big let down on the citra hop flavor.
