I got a 6pck of cans of this beer from the brewery whilst visiting my youngest at University of Cincinnati. It poured a slightly hazy golden with white head that is leaving some lace. The scent had subtle fresh bitter citrus presence. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with bright semi sweet malt base with bitter citrus presence. The mouthfeel was medium in body and had good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.

Can pour (can is undated, but was a gift, so) Looked unfiltered. Nose had soapy notes, and while there were pine/grapefruit notes, there was also that soapy note.

Great standard IPA look with a golden copper color and a really nice white head and lacing.
Smell - Very floral resin pine with a slight citrus
Taste - citrus taste with a piney resin floralness
Feel - medium light body with a medium carb
Overall - not much of a fan.
