I tried this on tap at Columbia Kettle Works, served chilled in a pint.
The color is a beautiful golden shade with good clarity and thin white head with fine bead and lasting retention. The smell is excellent with lots of citrus aroma with full-on hop smell that has a light floral odor and gentle malt accent. The feel is mild in body with moderately high carbonation with slightly bitter middle and mostly dry yet light finish.
The taste brings a tangerine/tropical fruit flavor in the hop profile with a light peppery middle and slightly toasty malt with a hint of grapefruit coming through toward the finish with light lemony citrus and mild yeast in the dry finish. This is one of the best Session style IPA's I have had -it has the right amount of hop bitterness without becoming astringent or completely unbalanced.

Had this on 2015-08-02 at the brewery.
A - Clear gold with a 1.5-finger white head with nice kace.
S - Orange, pine, cracker, floral and mildly dank.
T - Echoes the aroma. Hop forward with plenty of bitterness (61.5 IBUs) but enough malt body to back it up. Citrus flesh and zest. Pine. Mild pepper. Nice flavors of hop resins.
M - Light-medium body and medium carbonation. Pricky and a bit resinous but it's still refreshing.
O - A bold and flavorful session IPA. The satisfying biscuit and fruit sweetness to balance the significant hop flavors make this a winner. A great summer brew. Well done.
