Drinking this at a local tap house on tap poured into a pint glass
Appears hazy orange yellow, Nice head that dropped quickly and nice lacing.
Smells citrusy, orange
Taste follows the nose. Upfront hoppy
The mouth feel is medium light
Overall a good example of West Coast IPA, tasty, good carbonation and hops all the way through.
If looking for a hop bomb, I'd definitely order again.

While with Romans do as the Romans do, so on a trip to Raleigh NC, I drank many Seven Saturdays IPAs.
It pours cloudy, and the grapefruit hits your nose immediately. It's not overly hoppy on the front end, and doesn't make you recoil with bitter beer face. It's easy to drink one (or 5), and while I thoroughly enjoyed the first few days of this, eventually the hoppiness got to me. Note that this was after about 2 dozen of them, and I think this is honestly my favorite IPA of all time.

I don't typically go around passing out perfect scores but this one is perfection. Great taste, smooth finish and just the right amount of hops make this beer easy to drink all year round.

Golden color, perfectly clear, this is the clearest NE-style IPA I’ve ever seen. Dank hop aromas featuring grapefruit, mango, and passion fruit are very nice.
The taste features the grapefruit, and the mango and passion fruit spice the beer up. Mouthfeel is crisp and dry. Really well-executed, IMHO.
