The liquid is clear with a gold to amber color. Three-finger initial head, but it settles to a film of bubbles in about five minutes. Some spots for lace.
Refreshing smell featuring slightly sweet, toasted barley malt and floral hops. Advertised as a western IPA, it checks all the right boxes.
The flavor starts with a solid kick of unsweetened toasty malt. The hop comes on subtly but reaches a full level of bitterness at the swallow. The finish is partially sweet with a black pepper counterbalance. Very rich body for the style which minimizes the bubbles. Overall, an excellent example of the traditional American IPA.
