Bottle from Harvest Foods grocery store in Moses Lake. Medium amber with thick fluffy head. Malts edge out the hops ever so slightly, but overall a nice blend. Some sweet, some astringent, dry finish.

Mild orange color, head foamed up in a concerning way, but ultimately it was fine. Aroma dropped tons of bitterness and not much more.

Taste is another bitter bomb. Doesn't really have much in the way of hop mouthfeel, more of a mouthfeel akin to copper pennies. Bomber format for a beer that there are hundreds of examples just like it. Pass.

I don't usually drink many IPA's during the winter but Santa left this one under our tree (And I never look a gift beer in the mouth)

22 oz bottle. No bottling info

Pours a hazy golden-yellow body with a white head. Fair retention, Good lacing

Prominent citrus with some plumb and a slightly grassy floral bouquet

Taste is mostly grapefruit with a nice bitter finish

Medium thin feel is a bit prickly

Overall a nice average IPA. I would drink it again but wont necessarily seek it out. Perhaps if I had it in the summer I would appreciate it a little more.
