Pours a slightly cloudy deep golden amber coloration with a small, frothy head. Smells of caramel malt and citrus hops: grapefruit, tangerine, with a certain flowery note as well. Taste follows the nose, with a decent balance of biscuity, caramel malt and citrus hops: grapefruit, tangerine, with a certain flowery note and just a hint of pine as well. Finishes with a light/medium bitterness and some more pine coming through in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

This seems to try to be a West Coast IPA, but is a little too sweet and flowery for that, with not quite enough hop bite and bitterness coming through. Still enjoyable enough in an easy-drinking kinda way though. This may also be due to age though, I have no idea how old this bottle is.
