A: Pours with a chilled haze. An orange color that clears up as this warms a bit. A small head forms with little retention, and not much lace.
S: Pine, orange rind, grapefruit citrus notes. Simple and pretty standard, which I would be more impressed with if it was more aromatic. Seems a bit stale to me.
T: Again, that pine, orange rind, grapefruit citrus is up front. Caramel malts become a bit to apparent, with a candy like sweetness. This actually starts to resemble more of an orange creamsicle. Light bitterness lingering.
M/O: A medium body and moderate carbonation. Just kind of there and wet. OK to drink one, but I'm looking for something else quickly.
Not the worst thing to drink, but misses the mark for a so called "West Coast IPA" for me. The bitterness needs to be dialed up, and the sweetness toned down. Very average.

Pour is a clear, golden. finger of off white head with great retention.
Nose is pine, resin, grapefruit rind - true west coast IPA.
Taste follows. Pine, resin, grapefruit. hint of tropical fruit on the finish. Firm bitterness. Clean and crisp. dry finish.
Probably the best beer I've had from No Label.

an extremely well balanced West Coast IPA. I am an NEIPA man myself, but I can appreciate how well this made.

Had a couple of these at the excellent Flying Saucer Draught Emporium in Sugar Land Texas. A worthy competitor to Western US breweries like Stone, and Colorado breweries like New Belgium. Would buy if they start selling in the DC region where I reside! But only if they can get close to the prices those big boys offer in that region now
