16oz pint at Beer Revolution.
This beer appears a thoroughly hazy, bright medium golden amber hue, with one finger of thinly foamy white head, which leaves some random snow rime lace around the glass as things sink away.
It smells of somewhat sharp orange and grapefruit citrus rind, spruce pine tips, a softly lulling earthy yeastiness, and semi-sweet pale malt. The taste is more of that big, brash acrid citrus pith - orange, grapefruit, ya know, the usual suspects, with a laid-back rising bread yeast essence, a forest floor detritus green edge, and a hint of warming alcohol.
The carbonation is fairly peppy, the body just on the lee side of middleweight, and tacitly smooth, those hops doing their typical back end damage job. It finishes on the dry side, as the hops, still meek yeast, and cereal-like graininess face little offset.
A pretty tasty white IPA, with the 'white' mostly restrained to the appearance, rather than any strong affinity to Belgian yeast profiles. In fact, if I didn't know better, this would just seem to be a well-made, unfiltered west-coast IPA.
