This is the second in a series of limited release brews from this new brewery. It's a single hop IPA, using Amarillo hops. Served in straight pint glass. Poured a cloudy/hazy golden yellow with a very lively head of over an inch, that had decent retention and lots of sticky lacing.

The aroma was very hop forward with just a hint of malt in the background. There was a bit more malt on the tongue and those Amarillos (perhaps my favorite hop) were nicely nicely paired.

The body was decent, although perhaps a touch thinner than I would have liked. Drinkability was very good, I'll drinking a fair bit of this while it's available.

Overall, a very nice brew. I personally hope the brewery decides to add this to it's year round lineup.
