Poured from 22oz bomber into a tulip. No packaging date on the bottle.
Appearance: light yellow hue with a bit of haze and a finger of frothy white foam atop. A perfectly reasonable IPA.
Smell: lemony hop aroma atop a bit of sweetness; it's a bit piquant. The sharp bit of the aroma feels unintentional.
Taste: floral hop flavor with a light, pillowy maltiness. It's quite different than the aroma -- it's much softer, and feels more intentional. More of a pale ale than an IPA in profile, but really not too bad.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a good carbonation and a very nice, smooth creaminess for the style. I like it.
Overall: this beer isn't as cleaned-up as it could be. It's a bit more of a pale ale than an IPA in my book, but it's serviceable.

hated 22oz bottle (no date) poured into 14oz teku. Poured a very cloudy medium yellow color with an inch of white head that had moderate retention and very light lacing.
Pine and froot hops at the front of the nose, with a gentle, yet solid, grain base.
Pretty similar on the tongue, with the hops popping a bit more.
The body was medium-light, smooth, and had a crisp, dry finish.
Drinkability was pretty nice, no issues finishing the 22.
Overall, A nice brew. I could see drinking a few pints, in the non-covid times. Worth a shot if you see it.
