From the bottle, it pours amber with a modest head. The head doesn`t last long. Light scent of hops in the nose. The mouth gets a lightly hoppy ale.

One of my favorite local IPAs, coming in at 6.8ABV, it has a great bold flavor. Very light citrus with floral after notes. Pours amber with lasting head in pint glass.

Pours amber/copper with a thumb eggshell colored head. sheets of lacing, good head retention
S: Floral & citrus notes, perfumy hops
T: Follows the nose, light breadyness as well, slight grassiness too up front. Lemony piney notes as this warms, then pineapple & grapefruit pith, some herbal bitterness as well. Finishes with floral & grassy hops, a touch of pear, just a kiss of mango
MF: Light/medium bodied, fairly firm carbonation, decent balance
Very drinkable/approachable IPA, not too complex or filling. Worth a try to be sure, not killing the heavy weights, but no slouch. Takes me back to the IPAs of the 90s for the most part...
