A sublime IPA-like creation brewed with pilsner malt and ample Mandarina Bavaria, Equinox, Chinook, Yellow Sub, and Citra hops. Cloudy and fruity (think: sweet citrus, peach, tropical), with initial malt sweetness evolving into a pleasant-yet-pinching bitter finish.

It pours cloudy yellow with some orange hues. It has an off white head with average head retention. The aromas are a bit sweet up front with peach, Belgian funk, and a bit of a sour note. There is a bit of yeastiness with peach. It has some bready notes to it with peach and Belgian funk. There is a very light sourness to it with some citrus and a touch of tropical notes. It has a medium body with a very lightly soured and sweet finish. Overall, it is a fairly unique beer when compared to other beers I have had. The flavors do not mesh well together for me.

This one pours a slightly hazy but mostly clear golden yellow color, with a small head, and a little bit of lacing.

This smells like stone fruit, perfume, floral hips, citrus, and grassiness.

It says this is IPA-like - this feels pretty much exactly like an IPA to me. It's got a little bit of malt sweetness, and a touch of floral/grassy bitterness, but it's definitely just mostly soft and juicy, in a good way. There's bit of sweet perfume, too - nothing overwhelming or soapy. I mostly get tea and peach as the hop character.

This is light bodied, creamy, and soft, with great drinkability to it.

I thought this was going to be basically a hoppy little Belgian pale or something like that - nope. It's just a straight up IPA, and a pretty well done one at that.
