Pours hazy, orange-brown in color with 1/3 inch head. Taste is herbal hops with faint blueberries. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, and sweet. Nice herbal IPA. Wish there was more blueberry. I may not have picked up on their faintness had they not been advertised. Still a solid IPA.

22 ounce bottle into a snifter. Bottled 11/23/16, had 12/27/16.
Pours a mostly clear medium amber, with a one inch foamy head and a good amount of foamy lacing. The smell is lots of citrus- orange, grapefruit, mango, some resin and a dank aroma, blueberries, light yeast, light malt. The taste is strong hop bitterness up front, more resin and earthiness than the nose, grapefruit, orange, lemon rind, blueberries, some malt. The honey and malt tamp the bitterness in the middle, before a bitter finish. A light sourness at times. Smooth, a solid medium body, well carbonated, the bitterness lingers.
A great addition to the fish family, with more bitterness and less sweetness than the usual entry. The blueberries, while not prominent, are excellent. Great overall flavor. Well worth a purchase, the next time it comes around.
