Draft at R.F.D. Clear golden body with small fluffy head. Faint aroma becomes a little fuller in the taste. Closer to a NW APA, but still good, gentle bitterness and flavorful. Malts allowed to take a co-starring role here.

This is a relatively low ABV for a west coast IPA but don't let that fool you. The hoppiness hits you with the first sip. The beer also has some fruity notes and It has a nice white lacing that lasts a fair amount of time and pours a moderate amber. I really liked the taste. Easy to drink more than one.

12oz can, pilsner glass, enjoy by 9/4/22.

This puppy looks great; gold, light yeast haze, pillowy head with nice lacing.

Citrus rind aroma and flavor, slight soap

we sampled several local beers during a recent trip to the Blue Ridge mountains, this one was the winner - perfect balance of hops and malt, citrus overtones without going overboard, smooth, nice mouth feel, enough of a kick to know you shouldn't drink too many - just a great all around beer

Had this on draft at the ValleyFest Beer & Wine Festival 2021 at Massanutten Mountain on 9-18-21. Pretty solid offering and near sessionable. West Coast offering that had a citrus and stone fruit flavor.

Another of Three Notch'd that i had before but yet to write a review. Costco 24-pack sampler! Pours a pale apricot color with a nice foamy head. Not much on the nose. Some grassy notes and citrus but not much to speak of. The taste and feel are great tho. Incredibly balanced and i could easily drink a few more of these on this fine late spring evening. Would take this any day over Minute Man

Consumed from a glass while preparing some ribs to go on the smoker.

Pours with a huge head. Monstrous, gigantic, fluffy, ow my thumb hurts typing this I think I broke it yesterday whilst doing jiu jitsu. Actual beer looks a bit thin compared to the head.

Grapefruit and citrus hits in the nose. It’s a subtle yet pleasant aroma.

Citrus fruit hits up front in the taste, almost sweet, then gives way to a oily bitter finish. Simple but tasty.

Mouthfeel is highly carbonated but a bit on the thin side.

Overall it’s a legit IPA. I’m not going to keep it perpetually stocked in my fridge but I’ll buy it again.

Nearly clear with dirty gold color. Excellent lacing in the form of streaks and rings.

Semisweet smell of paler malts. Mild floral hop aroma.

Earthy hop flavor is the initial sip. Smooth start to the tasting with richer "round" body and soft pale malt. The carbonation is higher than expected and it enhances the biting hop finish. Long neutrally bitter aftertaste.

Pours a clear amber color with a white head. Medium carbonation. Strong citrus and pineapple on the nose, and not much in the way of hops. Taste is a good balance of tropical fruit, especially pineapple and with mild bitterness of resin from the hops. Solid brew.

Clear gold, nice white head, great retention and lace
Earl Grey tea, orange candy, mango aromas
Flavor follows aroma, a little bit of doughy malt
Medium bodied, good carbonation, a touch sticky
Pretty decent

Poured into a glass - very foamy, soap-sud head! Nice orange-citrus aroma. Tastes great - very peachy and fruity with a slight sweetness and just enough hoppy bitterness. Delicious and drinkable!
