On tap at the brewery.
Pours a golden orange with a white head.
Nose is citrus, grapefruit, and pine. MMM very nice hop profile here.
Tastes is very hoppy with a grassy floral profile. Very nice work here.
Mouthfeel has a crisp hoppy carbonated feel to it.
Overall this is a very well done ipa and I would love to have it again.

appearance - golden orange with a good fluffy white head. about an inch or so when handed to me at my table.
smell - citrus and grapefruit come first, then some heavy pine. i like this. some grass/floral. my kind of hoppage.
taste - more bitter than the nose, but definitely the nose is there.
mouthfeel - bitterness is short and sweet. body is medium for the style. carbonation is great, a bit over carbonated maybe for some, but for the style, perfect id say.

On tap at the Avery tasting room. Unfiltered look, with one quarter inch of head. Very tasty, like a 1.5X IPA. IBU 69, grapefruit taste,sweet malt and slight sugar to balance it out. Chinook hops.Declicious hop aroma. Very good IPA. Good drinkability.

On-tap at Blue Palms
A: The pour is essentially the same orange color as the IPA with a finger's worth of white foam and mild lacing.
S: The citrus aroma is fairly pungent and mostly consists of grapefruit. Plenty of pine forward hops, too, along with a more mild grassy aroma.
T: More of the same on the nose. Lots of bitter grapefruit and pine, seemingly more bitter than the regular IPA. The malt flavor is subtle and just sort of like a dry, boring bread flavor.
M: Medium in body with a fairly high level carbonation and lingering bitterness.
D: I thought this was better than the regular IPA, but maybe I was just swayed by the Dry Hopped descriptor. In any event, still not amazing, but quite good.

One more from the Quinquepartite release at Avery tonight. Poured from the tap a nice medium golden color, with a good fluffy white head. Nice juicy, resiny hop aromas (bubblegum, citrus), but not as much as expected. Pretty similar to the regular IPA taste-wise, decently hoppy with a nice bitter finish.

Served in a pint glass at the Avery tap room. Golden with a haze. Lots of carbonation. Beautiful white head that produces copious lace. Grapefruit and, to a lesser extent, caramel are present in the aroma. Bit of a carbonation bite up front. Not as sweet as one would suspect from the aroma. Very well balanced. Healthy and long bitter finish.
Note: ABV-6.5 IBU-69 (tastes much higher, though)
