Draft at Lawson's Poured a cloudy, golden orange color with a small, white head of fluffy foam. It left sudsy lace. It smelled of orange, more orange and even more orange. Very sweet with orange flavors and a mild bitterness.

Disappointing. Lacking in any standout or bright flavors or aromas. Easy drinking but bland.

Pours a pale yellow with a small white head with good lacing.
Aroma is nice citrus, orange, lemon zest, bready malts.
Taste is bright citrus, orange, tangerine, lemon zesty, floral and grassy. Overall not bad, good nose good flavor for a lower ABV.
Mouthfeel is little peppy on the light side of medium.
Overall not bad but wouldn't make it into my regular rotation

Feels medium lighter bodied, creamy with smooth moderate carbonation. Overall a nice hazy IPA.

On tap at Victor's in York PA. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a modest off-white head. Decent lacing. Initial impression is orange, tropical fruits, and a touch of pineapple. Mouthfeel is fairly light, fairly smooth and fairly soft. Finish fades to slight orange sweetness. Nothing memorable here.

16oz can poured into a SA perfect pint
A- pours a hazy golden color with a one finger foamy white head that has good retention, some random brown floaties sinking to the bottom of the glass
S- bright citrus, tangerine, grapefruit zest, grassy, toasted bready malt
T- pretty well balanced, drinks more like a pale ale. Opens with some light tangerine with a hint of grapefruit zest. Mid-palate gives some light bready undertones. The finish gives more balance of tangerine and toasted bready malt
M- medium body with moderate carbonation leads to a foamy mouthfeel and a crisp finish
