On tap at Goose Island Clybourn, review from notes.

Bright deeply saturated dark orange with sharp clarity in the light. Offwhite foam has a finely textured surface, soft and creamy, leaving spotty flecks of lacing here and there. Good retention, the skim never breaks for the duration of the glass. Piney aroma, herbal, with some mild grapefruit rind when vigorously swirled.

Light citrus and caramel malt flavors, aspirin bitterness, lightly astringent. The caramel malt gives it some balance. Medium bodied with light carbonation, its a little bit flaccid in feel. Similar to Sierra Nevada or some basic staple IPA, this one isn't really forging new territory.
