Was looking forward to this one as well as it at a high rating on Beer Advocate. One reviewer, but still. Probably should have had this one before Mind PHOQ.
Poured a golden, honey, clear color with three fingers of rocky, white head when I got it. A few bubbles coming up from the bottom of the glass. Great layered foamy lacing. Very good retention. (Sight - 4.25)
Smelled wet Cascade, lime, soapy pine, orange zest, sugary orange (maybe orange blossom?). candied sugar, floral hops, sweat, light wet dog and hints of Simcoe. (Smell - 4.00)
Tasted wet Cascade, lime zest, soapy pine, lemon, candied sugary orange, some orange blossom, buttery floral hops and still bitter spicy Simcoe. (Taste - 3.75)
Light body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Bitter buttery finish. (Feel - 3.50)
This was just OK and I think I overrated it a tad. Probably would not have it again and I do not recommend it. (Overall - 3.75)

Stopped through and got to taste the cask version dry hopped with Citra (Mid Feb, 2016). Awesomeness in a glass. Smooth, creamy, hoppy, tasty. Enjoyed more than the batch of Project Dank on tap that day.
