From growler. Pours a clear light golden with a large pillowy white head that retains well and leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is grassy, earthy hops with a touch of citrus and bready malts.
The flavor is a speckle of sweet malts then some corn/vegetables that quickly gives way to a big floral hoppy bitterness. It has a long lasting bitter aftertaste. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with lively carbonation.
Overall, a decent IPA. It's very hoppy and bitter, but the hops used aren't my faves. The vegetable flavor threw it off for me as well. I appreciate what they're trying to do though.

Got to go to the Ft. Collins brewery yesterday and try this new brew. It premiered on July 8th, and has proven to be popular. Appearance is golden with a modicum of foam and little lace. Aroma consists of hops, and barely discernable malt, with some notes of corn. Body is thin, carbonation about right. Initial taste is of HOPS!! Very bitter = translate - perfect for hop heads. Middle is slightly dry, and the finish leaves hops on the tongue.
