Had this on tap at the brewpub on May 28, 2016.
Nice pale gold color. Nose is of fruity hops. Menu said this was 57 IBUs, but this wasn't bitter at all. It tasted so much of apricot that I looked twice at the menu to confirm that it wasn't actually flavored with some type of fruit. Nope: just 3F working its usual magic with hops. This was incredibly smooth drinking and went very well with the meal we were having (I followed it up with Jinx Proof, for which I have also written a review).
This wasn't a 3F hoppy mind-blower, but of course not every beer needs to be or should be one. The name would suggest an aggressive beer, but this is a very gentle pint. Recommended as something a bit different and interesting from 3F.

Appearance: Pale golden amber in generic pint glass at Gerst Haus in Evansville. Little to no lace.
Aroma: Tropical pineapple hops. Yum! Impressive already.
Taste Nicely bright and tropical here, too. Citrus and pineapple hops abound! Finishes bittersweet but well-balanced. A really delicious IPA that I’d love to have again.
