I got a 6pck of this beer from my local meijer store. It poured a clear copper with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had bitter fruit presence. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with dank bitter fruit notes. The mouthfeel was medium in body with good carbonation. Overall its a good beer.

12 FLUID OZ bottle
Served in a nonic pint glass

This beer pours amber and is topped with an inch of beige head that leaves decent lacing.

The smell is dank and citrusy. I get a slight medicinal smell as well.

The initial flavor is citrus. There are some hints of tropical fruit. grapefruit creeps in, and it finishes with pine.

Medium bodied with an effervescent mouthfeel

This is a good west coast style IPA.

A good beer, however not my favorite from here. Nose wasn’t giving much and neither was the flavor. Took holding the beer in mouth for several seconds to get a flavor I needed.

Just spectacular. The whole series has been very good with volume one being great. This one takes the cake and is downright stellar.

Had this on 2020-01-10 near PIttsburgh, PA from a fresh 12oz bottle

A - Clear golden-orange with a 2-finger pillowy head and good lace.

S - Pineapple, papaya, biscuit, mildly dank

T - Good amount of French bread, pine, pineapple, papaya, grass and earthy spice. Moderately bitter

M - Medium+ body and medium carbonation. Resinous and a bit prickly.

O - It's quite good. Nice balance. Taste profile suites me. Worth seeking out.

Bottled on 12/18/19. 12oz bottle poured into a tulip. Pours golden with great clarity and transparency with bubbles racing upwards; fluffy white head that falls leaving great retention and sticky lacing. The aromas have a nice amount of tropical fruits leading the way. Some pineapple along with some hints of rubber. Malts are there. The flavors follow the nose. More pineapple along with some grapefruit. Lots of fresh grass. Nice hop flavors. Nice hop bitterness. Malts do their thing without dominating. Finishes dry. Alcohol goes unnoticed. Mouthfeel is great. It's medium-bodied with active carbonation. It's sharp, crisp, fluffy and smooth.

This is a really nice IPA. It's up there with the best volumes in this series, in my opinion. The craftsmanship is really impressive. Well done.
