Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a clear golden color with a one finger head of white foam. The head has a good level of retention, fading over time and leaving a decent sum of streaky lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is a mix of cracker and bready malt paired with some peach, apricot and tropical fruits (papaya, guava, and mango). Other aromas of grapefruit hop and some light herb are there as well, rounding out the smell.
Taste – The taste begins with a light cracker malt flavor paired with a decent hit of grapefruit hop and some fruit flavors of orange, tangerine, and papaya. There is a little bit of pine in there as well, with it getting slightly stronger as the taste advances. Herbal hops come on at the end, and with a lessening of the fruit, one is left with a more citrus hop/taste, but lighter flavored taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is light to medium in thickness with a carbonation level that is moderate to higher. For the style and the low abv the feel is good making it easy drinking, but still allowing for appreciation of the flavors.
Overall – A rather nice session IPA. Would do it again.

Picked up as part of a mixed twelve pack at Bradford's Liquors in Plymouth, Massachusetts for about fifteen dollars. I do not believe that you can buy this separately. Nice LAB.
