Looks good, decent head and lots of lace over top of a dark gold brew. Comes across as more maily than either of a wheat beer or an IPA. Sweet up front, bitter and hoppy to finish. Drinkable, but not distinctive. Muddled approach, i think.

Appearance: It has a nice hazy copper color to it. It has a nice thick off-white head that dies down moderately and leaves some nice lacing.
Smell: The aromas definitely give out hints of wheat, biscuity malts, sweet caramel, floral hops, a light grassiness and a definite spiciness.
Taste: Like the aromas, it has some wheat upfront, biscuits/toasty malts, some sweet caramel, light floral hops, a faint grassy bitterness and a touch of spiciness.
Mouthfeel: It has a low-med carbonation with a nice overall balance and feel.
Drinkability: It's a very smooth drinkable beer accompanied by decent flavors and aromas. This beer is very malt forward witch is unfortunate. I was really hopping for more hops considering it is an IPA. Still enjoyable but I don't think I would buy it again.
