10 oz draft pour at Frisco Taphouse in Gambrills, MD. Pours a clear straw yellow color with a large fluffy head. Aroma and flavor feature bitter citrus (grapefruit primarily) and a hint of astringency alongside caramel or crystal malt. Mouthfeel is prickly and a bit harsh. Overall, not the greatest American IPA; a bit off-balance.

Pours a hazy golden orange with a finger of head that dissipates to a thin ring with some lacing. Aroma of mango and pine resin. Taste follows nose. Very nice.

16 ounce can poured into a willi becher.
The pour is drab opaque gold, no light showing through but I can see some bubbles rising . The one inch head is persistent, white and fluffy with some sticky lace. Moderate in strength, the nose is citrus forward, grapefruit with hints of pineapple. In line with the nose the taste is hoppy citrus with moderate pith and peel bitterness. The body is medium and soft with good carbonation. Unfortunately this one is way too acidic for me with a prickly bite that builds (over the course of 8-10 ounces) to a citric burning that covers my entire mouth. Every now and then I come across a hazy IPA that reacts with me in this manner.

Pours opaque bright gold color. Aro.a is weak with light citrus. Flavor is more delicate than normal from Aslin. Light and airy nectarine and tangerine. Feel is very soft and moderately carbonated.
This is a much more nuanced beer from them and I really like it. Just a very fresh, clean flavor. Fantastic.
