Poured from 12 oz bottle into pint glass. A 2" pillowy white head drops slowly with moderate lacing. Color is light copper with some streaming carbonation. Aroma dominated with pine and citrus hops along with bread dough. Mouthfeel is medium, resinous with a very dry finish. Flavor nicely balanced between malt sweetness and tangy citrus and pine. Overall: very enjoyable.

Very smooth and drinkable ipa. Not overly hoppy with a little citrus note

This was actually pretty good. Did not smell or taste like a typical IPA though. Will buy again.

More yeast "floaties" that I usually encounter, and yet it didn't put me off. I'm glad. Very good flavors of oak. Worth every penny.

Poured into a glass out of a quart-sized growler. Beer is a pleasant copper with a nice mauve head. some lacing on the glass. Aroma is bready malty, biscuits, a hint of pine. Taste is big and malty---maltier than a typical IPA. The finish is quite balanced, with bitter grapefruit and some tropical notes. Mouthfeel is good. It's a fairly substantial beer. Overall, a very nice IPA. The hops and malt get along well. It's fresh and good and a very nice change of pace from the in-your-face citrus-ey IPAs.
