This is solid but I know how bursting this hop can be sometimes and this just isn't enough for me. Definitely something I'd have again, no real complaints just had better

Pours golden. Lumpy lacing, little bit of nimbus going on, but that should be an indication to you that your brew is doing work.
Smells strong and hoppy. Like it's 100 IBUs (after checking it's 95 IBU). But the taste, wow. 100% excellent. Hop heaven. Nailed the citrus notes very well.
The most comparable beer I can think of this is White Rajah from Brewkettle. It's a mid-strength, hop forward IPA with no extras.
Wonderful brew.

Decanted from a 12 oz (355 ml) bottle into a conical pint glass; no production information in evidence.
A: Pours a hazy, golden-brown color with a white, quarter inch head, with minimal retention, and limited lacing.
S: Somewhat floral bouquet, but more characterized by aromas of lemon, tobacco, spice, and grain.
T: Flavors of lemon, tobacco, and unrefined grains. Bitterness predominates at back end and lingers overly long in peppery aftertaste. Not well balanced and too much aftertaste.
M: Light to medium bodied.
O: Bitterness too peppery with limited malty offset and without being quite satisfying. Wouldn't try again.

For an IPA, this is really smooth and light. Hops are a tad fainter and lighter than I like, but I can't at all complain because the flavor of this beer is great and its smooth as hell to drink. Malt and bitterness is well balanced. Beautiful damn lace in that glass too. Overall a pretty good beer that if more available I'd drink as a regular beer, as its damn drinkable.

12 oz. bottle poured into a tulip glass.
L---Golden/amber. Clear with a white head that faded fast and left some lacing.
S---Grapefruit, orange--as advertised.
T---Fruity & full of citrus. Grapefruit and orange again.
F---quenching and clean. Not as much carbonation as I would have liked.
O---A pretty good IPA. Not a top of the line one, but I'd certainly have another.
