On tap, officially v2.0 @ 8.7%:
Pours a nicely clear golden orange, not quite getting to copper. Head is a yellowed tooth color, but sits nicely atop the beer and provides very nice lacing.
Nose is almost devoid of fragrance. I get more wet cereal than anything. Lightly floral with perhaps a drop of citrus. Not very impressive at all for an IPA.
Taste is a tad one noted, although thankfully not as bland as the nose. This beer is almost tea-like in nature, and that's what I get in both flavor and feel. Medium dry overall, the dryness of of strong iced tea. Lightly floral hop notes, perhaps, but nothing to write home about. Trying hard to find something, I do notice some tropical fruit on an approaching room temp beer (of course, by then the feel is suffering).
There are definitely some Adroit beers that aren't for me but I could see their appeal to others. This one, I'm not so sure. It can be imbibed, but it might be better not to, if there are any other offerings.
