Pours a clear, brilliantly vivid lacquered golden copper-orange body topped with multiple fingers of thick, off-white foam; great head retention leaves a finger of creamy cap, a moderate, frothy collar, and a modest spread of denser chunks of soapy, webby lacing.
Aroma opens with soft contrasts of oaky perfume and candied raisin, all imbued with a light apricot syrup; malt plays quietly in the backdrop throughout before embracing a rounded tones of caramel, incense, and pine on the back of the bouquet.
Taste features caramel malt meeting piney hop resin upfront, soon migrating to floral potpourri and tinges of overripe stone fruits over the mid-palate; bitter grapefruit/lemon oils develop along the back end as a grassy apricot lingers past the finish.
Mouthfeel offers a robust, medium body touched with a pillowy grit and delicately fluffy moderate carbonation; an oily, rounding peak through the mid-palate guides seamlessly to a quickly encroaching, punchy bitterness, which in turn teases a stickiness before steadily progressing to a developed, boggy dryness into the finish/swallow.
Saturated and intense, this more traditional American IPA pits sticky hops against a delicate yet relentless malt foundation, all tied together with the balance and grace necessary to be steadily consumable; Little House has a real winner here.
