Appearance: light golden yellow in color with a 1" head that last a long time before falling to a thick surface foam. Plenty of lace here too.
Smell: orange and some floral aroma rise from the glass.
Taste: biscuit, orange, grapefruit, and a bit of spiciness are the main flavors. Bitterness is moderate.
Mouthfeel: medium bodied beer. Crisp throughout. Light dryness late.
Overall: a well balanced and an easy to drink beer.

A nice hazy lemon drop color with a tall but thinned out head of 2 fingers. Lots of nice hills of lace left behind.
Aromas of lemon peel, limes, lemonade, and sweetbread.
Flavor is a touch catty, but not bad, and has a woody-piney-lemon hop flavor, with hints of white breads and crusts fading out the finish. Flavor is very mild, not much left behind, needing taste after taste to really come up with the adjectives.
Feel is pretty thin but very well carbonated, slight dusty and dry finish.
Overall, an unimpressive but still highly drinkable IPA with a nice Amarillo showcase. Amarillo isn't my favorite hop, but it has a really nice bright profile traditionally which this beer really helps highlight. Recommended if it rotates out again.
