Very drinkable, especially as a “summer brew.”

This brew pours a a dark, hazy amber with a frothy white head. The smell is a balance of hops and malts with a little bit of citrus undertones. The taste is quite earthy, with some good hop profile. Overall a pretty solid IPA.

A - Very hazy orange body, pillowy off white head, distinct and extensive lacing.

S - Meh. Hint of lemon, a bite of herbal hops. Chalk, and a metallic tang that is not appetizing.

T - Front is a hint of lemon, a bit of pine, but these fade out quickly to a punishing bitter close. Aspirin in the close seriously detracts.

M - For as bitter as the close is, the drying is not as severe. Brisk carbonation.

O - Some promise, but this punch that makes the close is not pleasant, and the flavors are ultimately pretty basic.

From tap, nice golden amber hue with slight haziness. Smell is subtle tropical with a hint hops. Slight bubble feel and then wallop you with bitterness that stays on the tongue for a while. Overall a good IPA, but the bitterness might chase some away.

Earthy. Malty. Some orange, zest and grapefruit pith. Balanced bitterness. Little sweetness. Dry. It's not awful, but I don't want to drink another one.
