Palest clean yellow. Explosive lemon zest aroma. Interesting hops those amarillos, I don’t think I’ve had a beer with those too often. They come out very spicy, minty, grassy. The beer itself is rather quaffable, but a little smooth ultimately for an IPA. Light body once again I guess a bit more malt would help to enhance its raw hedonistic value. There’s still a faint cookie-ish touch though. Gentle and approachable, quaffable even. Nice medium bitterness seems to lace around the mouth. Definitely not very complex if not uninteresting.

Muted golden/yellow out of the tap, with a thick and foamy white head of tiny bubbles capping the liquid with a motionless half inch of foam. Aroma is big and inviting floral hops with citrus scents streaming through, and faint hints of understated malt. Ferocious hops explode all over the mouth with the first sip. It's bright and citrusy, with strong tangerine flavors, a hint of pine, and some orange peel in the finish. It's moderately carbonated, with a full mouthfeel, but enough to tingle the tongue. Perhaps one of Ron Page's best IPA's.
