Pouts deep, clear orange color. Thin hwad. Aroma is weak but a little malty. Taste is malt forward and moderately to strong bitter. Malt flavor sticks to the end. Feel is a little stcky with low carbonation. Overall pretty good standard IPA. Wheat flavor does come through but not defining, so it will feel like a regular IPA.

Orange, golden amber in color. Light bodied. Wheat, pine and white grapes. Dry, building bitter finish. Lower sweetness. Reading the hop profile I was looking forward to trying this. It delivered for the most part.

On tap. Pours a clear, orange color. Smells unique. Tangy hops, New Zealand plethora. Cactus and aloe. A little smokey? Flavor equates to the nose but has even more intricate flavors. I have only had a few beers from these guys but I have loved how wacky they are. I tend to enjoy them far more than the populous.

On tap at the brewery on December 27, 2014.
Unfiltered pale yellow pour. Modest head.
Lots of New Zealand grapefruit and citrus hops on the nose.
Medium but chewy texture.
Like the nose those citrus, floral, and grapefruit characters permeate the flavor through and through. A hop head delight.
