16oz can from Tavour. Hazy yellow pour, creamy white head. Citrusy, floral aroma. Taste offers a hint of grapefruit, floral notes, with a pillowy, creamy mouthful. Soft, a zesty bite that lingers. Really nice.

Bottled 8/4/16; drank 8/12/16 @ Golgi Apparatus.

Opaque light orange appearance.

Minimal bright white head; minimal lace.

Pineapple, grapefruit & dry grass notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Pineapple & peach flavors up front; mild dry grass notes on the finish.

Soft & pleasurable, with an enjoyable dryness; NE IA bliss. This is the best Mikerphone IPA I've had yet...

beautiful orange-y-looking pour with a tad off-white head. lots of fruits coming through from the pour. the taste amplifies the smells but throws in some of the Grape-y Sauvin also. overall, it's a really nice brew.
