Serving type:
On tap at the brewery into a tulip glass

Pours a perfectly clear pale gold color. Smell is of intense stone fruit, peach, apricot, sweet pineapple, with subtle tangerine citrus hops. Taste reflects the smell. Initial stone fruit and peach flavors lead into a pleasant sweet citrus hoppiness that finishes with a long lasting bitterness. Feel is medium plus which fits with the heavier fruit like flavors, definitely more drinkable because of the lager like creaminess. Overall this is a great IPL with awesome stone fruit characteristics. An exemplary beer in the style.

Golden brew with a tall stack of foam in the Saxo tulip. Spritzy mouthfeel. Fruity nose with a resiny note. LIme peel and sugar. Grilled mango and peach chutney. Fruity and aromatic. Lots of malty sweetness with a sharp edge.

Moderately bitter. Maybe a little overhopped for an IPL, in any case it's less drinkable than some in this category-- Might As Well IPL from Golden Road comes to mind. This one is more of an IPA. That jammy apricot is just so distracting-- they should make a DIPA from this recipe.

Another crazed jet-fuel hop rocket with wonderful aromatics. From the 22 oz bottle purchased from Barons Market in San Diego.

Clean and hop-forward. Definitely a unique, crisp lager beer with great taste!
