Had on tap at the brewery. Pours clear, gold in color with 1/4 inch head. Taste is honey, tangerine, and herbal hops. Bitter, medium-heavy bodied, and slick. Decent, slightly above average IPA. Goes down easy and certainly drinkable, but makes for an ok IPA. That said I think this has more flavor than their session IPA.

Old News pours out a very hazy brown color with a thin tan head that fades to a ring. Even as a fan of hazy beers this IPA is pretty unattractive.
Smell is a mixture of darker malts with some herbaceous hops. Flavor starts with a touch of grain and bread, toasted. Middle is a bit earthy, some lingering hops on the backend, bitter and resinous. Body is deceptively light, however.
Mediocre DIPA, hops weren't very stand-out. This one could use a lot of tweaking.
