Served on draft. Golden orange body, fair clarity, nice wheat head and great lacing. Aromas have a blast of grapefruit juice, citrus hops and juicy fruit rind oils. Flavor is an outstanding amount of grapefruit which plays well with the hop profile. It certainly muddles the hops a bit though it remains decently bitter. Extremely bright and juicy. Great refreshing stuff here.

Poured on tap at Prime 16 in Connecticut.
Deep golden body presented, with orange somewhat glow to it. Creamy light white one finger head presented on top, with a solid looking appearance.
Aroma is very fruit and non hop driven. Smells like fresh squeezed grapefruit juice, real impressive and very thick, with lots of zesty oils, and a touch of sweet. Hop angle comes completely unknown.
The palate is much like the nose indicates. Juiced fruit beer it seem, like drinking breakfast juice, large thick notes of fruited grapefruit, very pulp like tasting as well. Once again hop and beer character is just not coming through.
IT's a drinkable beer, and actually very neat, but really doesn't taste like a brew, and really not like an IPA. Bitterness and even malt angle is totally burried on this one, coming off more like a big fruit beer than anything else.
