On-tap served in a snifter at Hair of the Dog, Bangkok.

Mildly hazed amber orange hue with very thick velvety white head that very well retains itself with remarkable strength of retention before slowly subsiding to an everlasting thin foamy layer covering atop and leaving numerous amount of sticky lacing wave all around.

Crisp and quite juicy citrus is led in the aroma together with notes of tropical fruit, melon, yet some earthiness and grassiness. Malt is also there with its biscuit to light caramel.

The taste is quite mild and balance between hop and malt with hop a bit overcome with notes of citrus, tropical fruit, melon, some grassiness, and medium bitterness while malt with its biscuit, sweet, and slight caramel. The aftertaste is decent lasting with hop bitterness and juiciness.

The body is medium with good crisp and lively carbonation through the palate. The mouthfeel is quite smooth with good refreshing touch and a dry finish.

Single hop with Equinox, this one is showcase a bold citrus and tropical character. Crisp, juicy, and very refreshing IPA.

Clear orange color with white head. Aroma is fresh and hoppy with lots of citrus fruits. Taste starts hoppy with a slight malt sweetness. Finish is bitter and quite dry. Body is light with medium carbonation. It's a nice IPA but nothing special.
