L - orange, hazy; white foamy head with great staying power
S & T - overripe fruit, mango, tinned fruits in syrup; old, dank, sweaty socks; oily weediness (like weed-weed, the one you smoke); not much bitterness
F - pleasant, quite smooth, not drying, not very bitter either. Oily.
O - Can't get that danky, sweaty socks aroma out of my head. That, and the fruity notes were sickly sweet. I did not care for this beer at all.
I don't recommend this one.

Has a vibrant, orange-red color, one finger broad head. Smells of sweet orange, grapefruit, hints of lemon and malt. Has a strong malty backbone, its floral notes soon disappear by metallic carbonation ending up with a hoppy, long staying bitterness. Malt stays till the end, is in great balance with the upcoming hops, with orange and honey flavors still coming through.

Amber color, compact white head.
Smells super citrusy with a splash of grapefruit.
Taste is sweet with a light bitter bite. Orange, grapefruit, and citrus come through with a hit of caramel at the end.
Feels good, not to heavy, but not really watery.
Enjoyable beer.

From a 330ml bottle into a tulip.
A: Pours a hazy copper-amber color with a dense white head which left ok lacing. Good head retention. There is no visible activity.
S: Citrus, pinecone, some grapefruit, and a little resin-y. Pretty standard, given the hops used (chinook, cascade and centennial). Some malty sweetness and very light caramel in the background.
T: Decent malt backbone; pale malts and a little bit of caramel sweetness. Followed by pine and resin hops. The bitterness is where it should be.
M: Pretty smooth and velvety. On the lighter carbonation side for the style, but it does it justice.
O: A pleasant drink and a good attempt at a west coast style IPA.
