Standard haze. Fresh juicy aroma. Usual combination of tropical and citrus with a major burst of peach. Soft finish. Resin held in check. Shit ton of flavor for 6%.

Pours cloudy milky yellow with finger of puff that dissipates pretty quickly, some lacing. Peachy aroma with piney, green undertones, some toasty sugar. Flavors of juicy stonefruit and some green bite. Nice feel but a touch boozy/hop burny on the finish. Pretty decent beer. To style, fruity and tasty.

Poured a slightly cloudy, light-yellow body with good head and lace. Aroma has light citric notes with some earthy dirtiness to it. Smooth beer, slightly acidic, it is a tad sharp at times, bordering on sourness, with a touch of grapefruit/white grapefruit sweetness to add balance and it is easy to drink.

Pours a milky orange with a one inch white head that left nice lacing. Smells of citrus and tropical fruits. Tastes of orange, peach, mango, a bit of pine and resin. Medium bodied and carbonated, creamy mouth feel, minimal bitterness.

On tap, pours a milky, hazy orange. Great looking beer. Smell was noted by someone several feet away—fruity and dank. Taste is complex and delicious. The flavor of a much bigger beer in a manageable ABV. Fantastic.

6% Citra/Galaxy IPA - On tap at Meridian Pint in Washington, DC

Appearance: Massively hazy. Pale orange when held into the light. Nice fluffy white head that maintains well. Lots of thick lacing.

Aroma: Citra and Galaxy are amazing together when done well and this is about as good as it gets. Very bright and lush with orange citrus, sweet peach, tropical character, and a bit of resin. Not much to improve upon aroma wise.

Taste: Sort of balances two worlds expertly. The drinkability of a 6% beer with the body and flavor of something much bigger. Flavors are similar to the nose. Lots of peach and orange citrus with hints of pine. Super clean for a beer this heavily hopped with no hop burn or astringency.

Mouthfeel: About as close to perfect as it gets. Fluffy, coating, and full for 6%. Still dries out nicely on the finish and doesn't have a lingering sweetness. Again, no burn or astringency.

Overall: One of the best single IPAs I've had in a long time.
