On tap at the Yorktown Pub.
The appearance was a nice looking murky dark orange to copper color with a bar pour's kind of slim off white semi-foamy head. Barely any lace.
The aroma was floral and piney hopped, modestly bitter with some malty sweetness underneath, somewhat like white bread.
The flavor leaned towards the bitter side of the piney and floral hop components. White bready and slightly toasty in the aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied with a fair sipping to sessionable sort of in between quality to it. Light carbonation. Appropriate ABV. Bitter finish of floral and piney hops.
Overall, I liked it as a normal American IPA worthy of coming back to.
