Served in a shaker pint glass at the brewpub.
Been a while since a new brew showed up here at MF, but we've finally got a nice west coast-style IPA on our hands. It pours a mostly clear amber topped by a finger of cream-white foam. The nose comprises ruby red grapefruit zest, perfume-y flowers, light mandarin orange, very light pine resin, and a twinge of toffee. The taste brings in more of the same, but with a stronger contingent of pine and a stiffer caramel backbone. The body is a light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a drying finish. Overall, a pretty solid IPA, one that focuses on the hops without throwing out the sense of balance.
