I had this beer on-tap in a shaker pint glass at the brewery.
Appearance: medium orange with a moderate haze and a solid finger of tan foam. I won't argue with that!
Smell: malty, bready, yeasty. Not a ton of hop character here — perhaps not the best thing to see in an IPA.
Taste: kind of a sticky malt with a citrusy and bitter hop character. Not too bad - kind of a west coast IPA vibe - but nothing too outstanding here.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and a perfectly cromulent texture for the style.
Overall: not the worst IPA i've ever had, but generally boring.

This a good and hearty IPA. Golden in the American IPA standard, it laces nicely but still has that metallic taste I always get from Detroit Beer Co. Every time I go there I get that taste. Nice and hoppy up front and subtle in the background.

This beer caught me off guard when I read it was an American IPA, it looks taste and feels like a Belgian style IPA.

An IPA focused on a citrus hops aroma and flavor. Pleasant mouthfeel.
