Present! This IPA pours golden with a white head that was almost absent as soon as I took a few sips. The brew does lace a little. The smell is a wondrous, pulpy hops and citrusy aroma blasts your sinuses. The taste is right on for a tropical take on a West Coaster made in the East. Went done light bodied and crisp leaving a nice subtle hoppy aftertaste that was quite pleasant. This is a great IPA from the Bronx!

12 ounce pour at the brewery.
A- Hazy straw colored liquid with a foamy head.
S- Light citrusy, resin, and floral notes.
T- Shows a bit of that tropical flavor, hints of mango and pineapple, then some biscuity malt and a bitter, resinous finish.
M- Fully and pulpy feeling up front and then finishes aggressively dry and bitter.
Well worth a Gun Hill visit.

Gun Hill has defiantly stepped into the arena of fine quality beers that doesn't just compete with the locals, this is a world class effort.
L: Clean slight haze that allows the light to reflect orange and peach colors that set you up for the aromas ahead
S: A pleasant resin that was built upon its great choice of hops. Grapefruit and orange grove notes eager to jump into your mouth
T: Citrus all the way, big sweetness finishes with a bitterness that rounds the experience
F: Each mouthful speaks a special roundness that is short of chewy, but big on flavor that sits equal to its American IPA claim
O: Great beer. Quit drinking the mass distributed beers that have outgrown their place. Welcome to the Roll Call

16oz can from Noble Grains NYC on the UES
Clear amber/orange with white head that dissipates quickly, smells like sweet candied hops with a hint of mango and papaya, taste is sweet candied citrus and mild bitterness at the end that lingers, this a medium bodied and chewy beer that leaves a slight stickiness on the tongue. Lovely bitter candied goodness from Gun Hill.
