16 oz can into an imperial pint glass.
L: Pours 99% clear iced tea color with a creamy .5" off white head, VG retention, light carbo bubbles, good sticky skeletal patchy lacing.
S: Malty, slightly herbal, toasted bun, caramel, berries.
T: Sweet malts, a center yeast bead that is similar to Sierra Nevada beers, citrus, zest, lime, light pine resin, honey, grapefruit, a subtle hint of sea salt. Has a long, tight resinous linger.
F: Gently brisk med-full bodied feel with a med-long moderately drying finish. Becomes smooth & creamy with warming.
O: A refreshing & easy drinking beer that is right in line with the style. There's a feel change with warming from having a bite to becoming smooth with less edge. It is very good in its style.

Pours a clear golden copper color with a fresh head and streaks of lacing. Smell is hoppy with pine and grapefruit notes . Taste is citrus forward with pine resin and grapefruit rind offset by sweet caramel baked bread malts. Mouth sweet floral and bitter, Very tasty and to style

12oz can with no date.
Wow a filtered IPA. Vibrant golden color with a dense head that had excellent retention. Heavy lacing left down the glass. Aroma is very herbal and floral. Smells like perfume. But the flavor differs as it is grapefruit and citrus with some grapes and berries. Another noticeable difference between this IPA and the trends, that it is dry with moderate bitterness. Boys and girls this is what an IPA should be like. Medium bodied and appropriately carbonated. Easy to drink for an IPA. I really like this beer.

Poured from crowler into glass. Fill date is marked on can as '7/18/18'.
Very slightly cloudy, medium amber colored body. Long lasting white colored head, starting out as two inches in depth, and settling to thick cap and ring. Leaves behind vast sheets and webs of lacing.
Vague citrus aroma, flat and muted.
Taste is not real crisp, with the flavor of citrus soaked cardboard. Has the hint of bitterness at the end.
Rather thin mouth feel. Okay carbonation.
Nothing really distinctive or distinguishing about this beer. It is wet and has a hop-like flavor but not identifiable.
