L- The beer pours a hazy yellow orange. The head is a fluffy pillow of white several inches high. I had to pour it in segments to avert disaster. The head lingers still as I write this. Legs of lacing ring the glass as a pile of mousse like foam still remains.
S-The nose is sweetish orange mixed with lemon and a touch of mustiness.
T- The beer starts with a much lighter amount of sweetness. This quickly transitions to grapefruit pith of moderate intensity. The beer finishes lightly bitter and dry with a combination of the pith and mustiness.
F-Mouthfeel overall is on the lighter side of medium. Carbonaton is likewise light medium. The flavors give the beer some dryness, but I wouldn't consider it even moderately dry.
O- A fair representation of the style in all but clarity. It's worth a purchase if you like Brut IPA's, but it's not going to knock anyone's socks off.

Moderately hazy, orangey straw color. Thin filmy head.
Sharp, somewhat citrusy smell.
Astringent taste, somewhat reminiscent of grapefruit..
Hard to discern any malt or hops taste.
