Taster at Vermont Tap. Hazy golden pour, ring of fine white head. Piney, hoppy, green aroma. Taste is minty, hoppy, spruce. Nice body. Hoppiness lingers.

From the can, it pours a clear golden color with a nice, but bubbly, head that soon reduces to a somewhat hilly ring with a big lake in the middle. In the nose, my first thought was pine, with some citrus. In the mouth, it is a touch bitter with a nice malt base. Nice session IPA!

Canned 6/25/19. "Bird is the Word". Light golden/blonde hue with a thin head. 4.20%. Heh. Pine and citrus in the nose. Dripping with citrus, pine resin and clean malt profile. Super clean finish on top of it. Come to think of it, I can appreciate the terpenes in this.

Can. CLEAR bright copper with loose head and lace. Grapefruit berry aroma with light cereal. Similar medium sweetness with very light cereal and berry bitterness. Light body slick and watery low carb. Pretty good but mostly meh.

On tap at McGillicuddy's, Five Corners, Essex Junction, Vermont.
This was poured into a pint glass, I got what was going on. Here's my observations.
The appearance was a "chill" haze sort of copper to orange color with a slim little cap of a little white head that swiftly glided off into oblivion. Barely any lace.
The aroma had some earthy, herbal, and grassy bitter hops up front playing with a clean sweet biscuit-like malt (but even that was hard to really come out).
The flavor was moderately bitter with a stifling sort of earthy to grassy hops kicking the malt further on into the background. Mainly a bitter grassy and earthy hop aftertaste but honestly, there wasn't much aftertaste.
The mouthfeel was about medium bodied, perhaps just a touch under with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt on par. Nice crisp smooth grassy to earthy hop sort of finish.
Overall, as a session IPA, I'd say it works. One I could see myself coming back to on a warmer day and with food.
