Sampled on tap at Horniblow's Tavern (at Big Boss Brewing).
A - Golden color with lots of haze and very little head.
S - Nice floral hop aroma.
T - I thought it was a bit sweet at first but the hops emerged after a few sips. It's got a good blend of citrusy and fruity flavor with a nice bitterness. It's not as hoppy as I'd like but it was still enjoyable.
M - Nice low carbonation that really let the flavors come through.
D - This beer is very easy to drink. It grew on me enough to have a second pint but not enough to take home a growler.

a: pours a pretty off-white head over a dark orange-amber beer, nice retention that builds with each tilt of the glass
s: strongly floral hop aromas with a strong tropical fruit contingent (sweet orange, grapefruit, mango), moderately sweet caramel malt backbone brings great balance (love a malty IPA), quite complex
m: soft medium carbonation with a medium body, creamy
t: sweet caramel malts offset with a big tropical hop flavor, bitterness is a little weaker than I'd hop for but adequate, nearly a 4.5, just lacking the complexity and hop bite to push it over the edge
d: very enjoyable with the abv completely hidden
growler from the brewpub carried to Fayetteville while watching the dogs for Mom
third in the series, brewed by Mike
