On tap at Belmont Station today. This is a brewery I'm unfamiliar with, but have read there is some connection with Great Notion (brewer works there and the beers are made there). In any event...

The beer pours a hazy light gold color with good head retention and lacing. On the nose I get considerable citrus and tropical fruit, along with a citrus popsicle aroma. This beer smells very similar to a lot of different GN IPAs I've had over the years. The flavor profile replicates the nose pretty closely, with some noticeable alcohol in the finish. Then again,this is a 10% abv beer, and alcohol doesn't seem to be excessive or over the top. Mouthfeel is fairly full, with the alcohol pretty well integrated into the flavor profile. This beer definitely delivers a lot of flavor, with minimal bitterness on the finish.

All and all, a nice beer from this new to me brewery. For those who like Great Notion IPAs, this should be a bit for you. Cheers.

Opaque light yellow. Nice frothy white foam.

Smells like vanilla, cardboard, peaches, melon, and nail polish remover. In a good way.

Tastes much more citrus and melon forward.

Soft and creamy feel. Sweet with some bitterness to almost balance.

Pretty good beer from a source I have yet to hear of. Cheers.
