A: slight haze; deep bronze in color; 2 finger off white head that receded to an uneven cap; nice lacing;

S: floral, with tropical fruit and earthy notes behind it;

T: earthy, woody, metallic; mild bitterness on the finish;

M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation;

O: like most session IPAs, lacks balance; flavor isn't good enough to make up for that;

Super foamy head. Thick like an ice cream float.
Clear gold. Smell is stale pine, composted citrus.
Taste kind of meh, but very drinkable. Despite the thick head mouth feel is thin.

Poured from the pint can, it pours a hazy amber with a nice head. Hoppy on the nose with the light bite of hops on the tongue. Easy to drink. Enjoyable.

Draught @ brewery: This one pours a hazy orangish color. There was a thin off-white head that left a decent amount of lacing. A little lighter nose. Floral and grapefruit notes. The taste is very good. It has just a light bitterness to it. A good malt body with tropical and grapefruit hop flavors. A nice "lighter" IPA.

Hate the concept of a session IPA. That being said this wasn't a bad one. It had a lot more body than most session IPAs. Great local beer to grab a four pack of

On tap at brewery. Mild, but a bit sour. In a can it was quite sessionable and much better.

Copper colored, tightly bubbled off-white head. Amazing aroma and flavor of tropical fruits. Not too over the top either. Best part is, this session IPA is not watered down hop juice like many others of the style. It has a good body and mouthfeel, so you know it's actually beer. Not harsh or abrasive at all. Love it.
