White IPA with fruity, tropical dry hops. White wheat gives a very pale color.

L: Slightly darker than a wheat ale.
S: Oily like a new england style IPA. Pungent and piney.
T: Mango and papaya on the hops. Flaked oats in addition to barley and wheat on the malts.
F: The dry hop action helps gives it a juicy resinous texture.
O: It's acceptable but nothing spectacular.

Look - Fantastic looking hazy slightly dark copper color with a big last white head
Smell - Lots of citrus and some tropical scents and a little pine
taste - a lot like the scent but more on the citrus side and slight pine and tropical fruit
Feel - medium body with a lot of carbonation, I'd back off on the carbonation slightly but still good
Overall - Really tasty beer

Just enough grain to give it a slight body. I was surprised that an ale with 5 different hop varieties had a clean taste. Usually those many types results in a muddled taste. No bitterness (if you don't like bitter ales).

I got this off the single shelf at a Kroger just down the road from south metro ice in Dayton,OH. It poured a clear golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had tropical fruit allure. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with malt forward base and citrus hop finish. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall its a good beer.
