Can dated 7-12-17 into pint glass. Pours a slightly cloudy yellowish amber with a negligible head. Initial impression is citrus rind and caramel. Hops presence is brief and muted. Mouthfeel is quite smooth (no hops bite to speak of) and medium-chewy; carbonation is about perfect for the style. Slight alcohol warming, which is surprising for a 6.5% brew. Finish leaves a slight bitterness at the back of the throat. Good IPA but not great.

Started out good but the hops disappeared quickly. Not bad but nothing to seek out.
