Had this one at the source this past weekend. Served from tap into a shaker. Poured red-orange with a slightly off-white half finger head that subsided to a minimal amount quickly. Maintained phenomenal lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, earth, earth hop, spicy hop, and subtle fruit hop. The flavor was of sweet malt, earth, earth hop, and spicy hop. It had a light feel on the palate with medium carbonation. Overall this was a decent brew. The earthy profile on this one was really quite strong if I am honest. This probably came from the Warrior hops that were used in the making of this one. There was also a nice spicy hop aspect going on that tried to mix in with the earthiness here, but just fell short in my opinion. This one definitely needed a little more balance to make it a crushable IPA, but still not bad if you are a big earthy IPA fan. Tick.
