Pours golden with white head. Perfumey grapefruit seed oil on the nose. It's got a lot of that catty Citra character, some grapefruit, but it's light bodied. Not the best expression of Citra I've had, but well made nonetheless.

Appearance: Arrives clear and amber colored with a one finger head; a few shards

Smell: Caramel and green onion and piney hop tones

Taste: The hops and the malt blend together bringing caramel and green onion and pine flavors together from start to finish; there is a fruity character, too, almost like an ESB

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: A nice straightforward example of the style if a little retro

On tap at Ardent.

Pours a clear light amber with fine, soapy foam.

Smell is slightly dank with plenty of citrus along with a little bit of pine and mango.

Taste is clean and simple, quite citrus forward. Nice, biscuity malt base easily carries the moderate bitterness.

Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.

Overall, a good, solid IPA. Nothing fancy, but tasty.

5oz pour at brewery in taster glass

L: Dark golden, get clear. Persistent heat, good lacing.
S: Light aroma, mostly citrus, a touch of tropical fruit
T: Follows the aroma, but a little spice or bite beneath it.
F: Crisp and dry finish, but a little thin
O: It's an IPA with Citra hops, so you know what you're getting. That's not meant to be critical - it's a fairly standard offering that highlights the light citrus hops.
