Another nice IPA that's surprisingly easy to drink, and with a distinctive hoppy fingerprint. A light citrus quality combines with the hops and a lighter body to deliver a solid hop push.

Thanks to Brutalfarce for this one. 16oz can poured into 14oz teku. Poured a perfectly murky and turbid light orange color. This was a very happy beer, as I had about 2-1/2 inches of just off-white head that had pretty good retention, yet very light lace.
The aroma was about what you would expect from a Simcoe/Mosaic brew: fruity, funky, and odd bit of "different". No real grain or malt scents. pretty similar on the tongue, maybe more fruit and less funk.
The body was the average light-medium of the Murkbomb style, with a semi-sweet finish. Drinkability was fine, no issues, but also nothing stood out. Overall, a pretty typical example of the style.

Poured from a can, no date visible. Judging from the ratings history it's a new release of an old recipe. Possibly altered recipe. Can says Simcoe and Mosaic hops.
Looks like a New England style opaque tan, with a fluffy white head that fades to a fine layer.
Smells nice, citrus and tropical. Pulpy orange juice, grapefruit peel, some light red berry and mango tones.
Taste is more of the same, hoppy and fruity. Nice!
Feels good, smooth and slick but a prickly carbonated bitter bite and lingering resinous feel.
Overall, a solid IPA. Flavorful and lively. Good stuff!

Got it fresh from Relic in 32oz growler on NYE. Unfortunately, any citrus that comes through underwhelmes.
