Every time I think 4 Hands can't outdo itself they somehow discover a way to do just that. Another amazing beer from an amazing brewery. One of the cleanest and most balanced APA's I've ever tasted. Right up there with Zombie Dust in terms of best APA's out there. Prost!

22oz brown bottle with no freshness date. Be careful when you open this. Mine started to bubble out and run down the sides of the bottle the second I opened the cap.
The beer poured a light orange/copper color and made a ½-finger of cream colored head that dissipated rapidly but left lots of spotty lacing on the glass.
Slightly sweet aroma with lots of fruit in it. Peach, mango, and tangerine seem to be the most prominent.
This is a well balanced IPA. Plenty of malt base to tame all the fruity hops. There was a touch of bitter grapefruit flavor in the taste that I didn't pick up in the smell.
This is medium bodied with a creamy smooth mouthfeel and fairly high carbonation.
This is the only beer I've tried from this brewery and so far so good. I like this.

Appearance - typical of the APA style, a coppery orange color
Smell - mostly tropical, perhaps some grapefruit/mango/tangerine/pineapple
Taste - delicious. I get each citrus pointed out in the smell.
Overall - I would drink this again. Very solid, would like to try it on tap. As it warms, a grassy flavor comes through. I prefer this one colder.

Really good hop forward APA. Nice citrus notes and good overall balance. Deep caramel color and good foam at top with lacing. Excellent APA that is a little more flavorful than average and compares well to ipas with similar taste.
