Had this on 2015-03-19 at the brewery and later from a growler.
A - Clear golden-orange with a 1-5 finger off-white head and nice lace.
S - Rye toast, earthy spice, floral and citrus sweetness.
T - Much like the smell with toasted rye bread, pepper and orange/grapefruit flesh and zest. The IBUs are listed as 55. There's plenty of bitterness but it doesn't overwhelm the rest of the flavors.
M - Light-medium body and medium+ carbonation. Dry with just a bit of resin.
O - A very well crafted and brewed beer. I'm impressed with how much of a malt profile there is for this ABV and IBU level. In a blind test, it would be easy to be fooled into thinking this is a 6-7% IPA. Kudos indeed.
