The beer is a bright golden color and had a thin bubbly head that didn't last. Not much on the nose, it is very light with a few citrus aromas. The taste is a very light IPA and light on the citrus flavors as well. Nice amount of carbonation and nice thin crisp beer.

Light aromatics of a citrus hoppy nose...very light but there. This is a light and refreshing IPA that you could throw back a few and not feeling it that much. It has some citrus notes just enough but not too heavy. Good beer...

Pours a clear straw yellow color. Smells of grapefruit zest, slight hops dankness, small fruity aromas, and light toasted biscuit. The smell is quite average. The taste reflects the smell much better with a nice hoppy bitterness that most session IPAs have trouble with though the flavors are too weak outside of the bitterness. Feel is thin and watery, with medium minus carbonation that slightly prickles the tongue. Overall this is a above average beer with better taste than smell, though as far as session IPAs go it's above decent.

On tap at Hamilton Family Brewery in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.
Pours a murky whitish-orange with a foamy bone head that settles to wisps of film on top of the beer. Small streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and grapefruit zest aromas. Taste is much the same with grapefruit juice and grapefruit zest flavors on the finish. There is a medium 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 an above average beer that with really nice grapefruit forward aromas, but the taste just doesn't match up.
