4.41/5  rDev +3.5%
look: 3.75 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Picked up a bottle directly at the brewery taproom 7-8-22 for $11.00. 2022 bottling consumed 10-20-22.

Beer poured clear gold with an okay white head.

Nose is inoculated very nicely with horse blanket and citrus.

Taste is a substantial but lighter pale malt base that is horse blanket and barnyard forward with a blast of citrus and finishes nicely resiny; 8/10 on my bitterness scale.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and refreshing.

Overall such a wonderful beer, wish i had picked up a few more bottles of this but regrettably its likely a one and done!

4.17/5  rDev -2.1%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25
Appearance: Arrives a clear golden color with a one finger head; shards of lacing are left behind

Smell: Funk and resin along with a sweeter floral tinge

Taste: Funky bitterness forward with floral undertones adding a lively, sweeter element; an assertive lemon rind bitterness, after the swallow

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: If modern IPAs tasted like this the style would create the legroom for a lot more variety from our brewers
