3.26/5 rDev -21.1%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25
This one pours a nice dark orange-ish color, with a large foamy white head, and lots of lacing.
Smells like...well, Citra, of course, with cat piss, orange, grapefruit, and orange, with a curious clove/yeasty aroma as well.
There's definitely something off and unintended about this one, as it has a very clovey, yeasty, and estery finish. This can't be intended- it tastes like a saison, instead of an IPA. The hop character is admittedly pretty good- lots of Citra, orange, grapefruit, etc, plus the classic cat piss, with a definite grassy bitterness. The yeasty finish is real tought to get by, though. I'm a bit disappointed in this one.
This has a juicy mouthfeel, but with an off putting finish, due to the issues described above.

3.79/5 rDev -8.2%
look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
From an undated 22 oz bottle, pours a moderately hazy golden orange. A finger of foam leaves an initial ring then streaky, spotty lacing. Smell is primarily grassy, lemony citrus. There's also a spicy herbal note, like eucalyptus, and also cloves. The taste is the same, with the clove note dominating and making it taste almost like a Belgian. Not bad, but I'm guessing the phenolic clove thing is not intentional. Loved Prospect, but this one has issues. Still, a decent drinker.

16 ounce can in an IPA glass.
Pale and unfiltered yellow orange colored brew topped with 2-plus F of white froth. The cap retains well and leaves some spot and splash lacing.
Citrus forward aroma. Tangerine, lemon, orange variant. Dry biscuit malt and some underlying stone fruit.
Mixed bag of citrus; orange, lemon, lime. There's candied sweetness and a bit of melon.
Medium body and hop bitterness. Borders on syrupy yet stops short of too sweet and too juicy.
Laid back hoppy IPA that's drinks nicely.
