It is good IPA though I'm not a hop head. Bitter yep. Hoppy yep. Floral hops. Easy drinking.

On tap at brewery:
For a lower ABV offering, this is a surprisingly amber brew (east coast speaking). The head is lasting and produces some decent sheets of lacing.
Nose is a little piney with a thread of caramel malt - too light for, but in line with some west coast IPAs I’ve had.
An amber malt base, a little less dry than I’d like, with a little toasted bread with honey aspect. There is a little homebrew aspect to the middle, though I can say exactly what it is as it’s a mild distraction. A tea-like flavor comes as the beer transitions to its bitter side (relatively). Piney notes lead a slightly too malt end.
West coast style IPA, to me - though at most a decent facsimile (which is meant as moderate praise for a couple-weeks old brewery). Remove that “homebrew” aspect and dry it out a little, and this would gain a few notches in my mind.
