I am trying this beer off the tapper at the brewery as part of a four sample flight. It poured a clear golden with thin white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had subtle bright citrus notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright sweet malt base with bitter citrus presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Hazy gold orange appearance, fluffy white head, minimal lacing. Fruity mix of pineapple, apricot, mango. Medium to full body, moderate carbonation, creamy mouthfeel.

I'm not a critic so I don't know from Look and Feel. I focus on taste. I've enjoyed many IPA's rated 4 and Wholphin Loves Narluga tastes as good as or even better than many of one, to me. Bottom line is I completely agree with the other ratings for this IPA.

Acid nose, but good color with moderate haze. Overall a crisp IPA with decent bite and clean citrus finish.

Great taste just wish the body was a bit thicker very juicy though.
