L: red hued ale with a frothy beige head that sticks to the glass
S: caramelized grain, bread crust, stone fruit, citrus, pine
T: very malty with heavy caramel notes along with toffee, toasted grain, marmalade & toast, nectarine, grapefruit, earthy pine
F: fuller body, moderate carbonation, sweet yet quite bitter with pine riding out the semi-dry finish
O: superb IPA - I will have to go buy more before Grinchmas is gone

Had on tap. Amber body with a khaki head, bands of lacing. Simple yet potent pine hops with citrus and mild resin for nose. Taste is pure pine hops and red malts, very bitter. Light body but never thin. Nice west coast red ipa though not the most deep or complex, it hits the piney hops hard
