Sampled today at Revolution.

Very bright gold orange, perfect clarity. Great head retention, with concentric lace rings on the glass as it gets sipped. The head never broke, which was pretty impressive.

Citrus rind and floral notes, some sticky dank hop cones are in there. The brewer mentioned the following hops, plus a few I forget: Warrior, Citra, Chinook, Cascade. Nice complexity there.

Flavor was juicy with a first impression of tropical fruit like mango and papaya, also orange peel/pith. A dry bitterness stepped things up in the middle, showcased against the simple pale malts. Very light and easy drinking for an IPA this well-hopped. Tasty. One i'll definitely get again in the future.
