Pours a hazy yellow leaning towards green with a white head that leaves trails of lace.

Smells of citrus - orange and lemon - with floral notes and slight bread malt.

Big citrus up front - bitter orange and a nice hit of grapefruit - flowing to floral hops a touch of bread malt.

Poured into a narrow pint glass: color is hazy, murky straw gold, head is off white with fine to small bubbles. Head dissipates to solid top with some spotting and lacing on the glass sides.

Smell is subdued - notes of citrus pith, grapefruit juice, mixed tropical fruit, maybe some light pine.

Taste is more notable but similar to the aroma - forward citrus pith and juice, mixed tropical fruits withe pineapple prominent, then lighter earth and pine; with warmth a mixed citrus and orange juice flavor starts to appear, with some lighter bitter pithy and pine notes.

Mouthfeel is lower carbonation, moderate sweetness, fuller notes, moderate pithy bitterness, lingering note on the tongue.

Overall a mixed juicy/pith hazy ipa, a notable bitterness lingers, but fairly drinkable.
