Brewed like a straight forward IPA with the addition of blood oranges, this baby has it all! Bright citrusy hops blend seamlessly with the blood orange to create an explosion of fruit and hops on the palate. A firm malt backbone carries this flavor load while a quenching bitterness dries the finish out and leaves you asking for another!

This has been a seasonal in their tap room for the last couple of years, first time I've seen it canned. Nice head and lacing, blood orange is more of an aroma, not so noticeable on the tongue. Not bad.
