L: Pours a light straw gold color, with a small creamy white head that dissipates fairly quick but leaves some on top. No lacing on glass.
S: Citrus and some tropical fruit and pine. A bready malt and when it is colder notes of clove and grassy hops. The clove doesn't fit in well with the rest of the aroma.
T: Grassy earthy floral hops and lots of citrus and lemon pith. There is a strong lemon pith bitterness, that gets slight much on the palate.
F: Pretty light body with medium carbonation.
O: A creative take on an IPA that doesn't fully come together.

The beer comes in a medium to deep amber, medium haze.
The aroma is flora, clove from the black lemon, citrus and lemon zest, bready malts.
The flavor hits with a piney bitterness up front, onto clove, chewy bready malts in the middle, medium minus sweetness, with a medium bitterness on the finish of spicy resin and earthy.

A fine-looking, fine-smelling IPA, but the lemon peel flavors are just weird. For me, they absolutely do not work, bringing a mouth-puckering bitterness that mixes poorly with the hops. I go between thinking it’s okay, and not wanting to drink it at all.
