Mostly clear golden orange body, thin laciness. Nose is soft grassy hop with mild mango and peach notes. Flavor is more bitter, sharp, with light citrus. Feel is light, dry finish. Decent.

Presentation: Draft, served in a tulip glass.
Appearance: Half finger head with some incredible lacing that coats the entire glass. It's a hazy gold color.
Smell: Faint, with a pleasant, fruity, musky hop aroma and nothing else.
Taste: The hoppy bitterness comes in right at the beginning and sticks around until the end without leaving a bad aftertaste. The fruity hop character dominates the palate but it's not strong or overwhelming, which is nice. If anything, it needs more of a hop kick since similar to the nose, the presence is faint.
Mouthfeel: Light bodied, smooth and refreshing which makes it go down easy. Medium-high carbonation.
Overall: A cut above the rest of the malty IPA's that can be had from most local breweries. The hops take center stage but a more "in your face" hop presence would have really made this one shine. As it stands, it's a bit above average but not great. It has potential.
