This beer pours a pale gold with an average head. The is fresh and easy with notes of lemon and grapefruit peel, as well as pine, strawberry, and pineapple. The flavor features bright citrus along with moderate bitterness, pine, a little resin, dried mango, pineapple and a background of floral notes. The mouthfeel is on the lighter side, with fizzy carbonation. Overall a classy, well put together IPA, with great balance good flavor. While there is nothing special here, it is very well put together.

 

 

 

 

Pours an almost clear, slightly cloudy bright straw yellow with a wispy white head that dissipates quickly but leaves nice lacing. Aroma is bright tropical fruits. Flavor is sweet mango, pineapple and a hint of orange rind. Low bitterness. Feel is medium body and nicely carbonated. Overall a very tasty beer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Poured12oz can into sniffer. Deep yellow with 2 finger head and some lacing. Pilsner malt to keep the color on light side. Very aromatic hops. Heavy dose of citrus and light pine with zesty lemon, orange, tangerine. Flavor has tropical fruit like pineapple and mango with citrus notes. Medium body and ample carbonation that finishes slightly dry. Solid new IPA.

!2oz can dated 7/5/17.

Pours a light golden amber color. Large 2.5 finger head. Pretty great retention and decent lacing.

Aroma is very fruity. Mango, pineapple, papaya, melon, and citrus.

Taste is bitter. Some melon, mango, and pine.

Feel is heavy for the ABV. Medium carbonation.

Overall a pretty nice IPA. Tastes almost like a double to me.

Pours a mostly clear darker yellow golden color with white head. Mango, pineapple, light fruits, some light pine, and a grass note on the nose; follows onto the palate. Medium bodied. Finishes with plenty of fruit and some pine.

 

 

Clean looking copper/yellow appearance, great nose full of sweet fruit that somehow doesn't show in the taste. Very watery mouthfeel kind of turned me off.
