I had this beer on-tap in a tulip at the brewery in Rancho Cucamonga.

Appearance: pale, light golden hue with no haze and a finger of ivory foam atop.

Smell: a little bit of crackery malt with a big dose of earthy, herbal hops. Appropriate to the style, and not too bad.

Taste: like the aroma, somewhat malty with a very earthy hop profile. Pretty decent but not outstanding.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: maybe fans of WCIPA will like it more, but for me it’s just a decent IPA.

On tap at Hamilton Family Brewery in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.

Pours a hazy gold with a foamy off-white head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of citrus fruit, citrus zest, and pine needle aromas. Taste is much the same with citrus zest, grapefruit juice, and earth flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer with solid citrus and earth hop characteristics all around.

Serving type: on tap.

Clean, citric based pale ale which is also easy drinking.
