Pours a dark, murky orange, with soft foam.

Smell is just a smack in the face of fruit, mango, peach, citrus. Great smell!

Taste is a bit sweet with loads of fruit, and then a massive piney bitterness hits you. The biscuity base, tropical fruit and bitterness blend together to form a superb balance.

Mouthfeel s medium, well carbonated.

I loved this beer. Great balance, and so much flavor.

Poured to an oversized wine glass.

A: The body is opaque with some orange haziness. The head is white and very minimal, showing little retention and no lacing.
S: The aroma is mostly citrusy and hoppy, having a raspberry fruit like aroma midway. It's very interesting.
T: The flavour begins with a peach and citrusy profiles, being very very dense and very fresh. The end of the sip is not that much hoppy, creating a very balanced taste for the beer as a whole.
M: The body is medium high. Carbonation is perfect. Alcohol is noticed after a few sips. Bitterness is medium high.
O: First Magic Rock and this is just awesome!

Pours golden cloudy amber into a tulip glass. Offwhite head is one finger high with good retention.

Aroma is piney, fresh floral hops and grass. The flavour follows on from the aroma with a mountain of grassy floral hops, pine frreshness and pith bitterness on the backend. There's a slight biscuit nature underneath it all which balanced everything out along with a slight citrus sweetness.

Feel is nicely carbonated, oily on the front with a slight dryness on the backend.

Overall a nice hoppy IPA, would drink again.
