Clearish golden brown.
Smells like an IPA-- piney bitter with grapefruit accents.
Tastes like an IPA-- piney bitter with grapefruit accents.
Full-bodied and almost creamy.
Overall, not interesting or delightful, but totally serviceable. Recommended!

Served on-tap at the Keg and Lantern in Brooklyn, NY
A: Pours a lightly hazy medium golden yellow in color with very light amounts of gentle visible carbonation along the surface of the beer and some light yellow highlights. The beer has a quarter finger foamy off-white head that slowly reduces to a mottled medium thick film covering the majority of the surface of the beer with a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Significant amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Slightly stronger than moderate aromas of floral and citrus/grapefruit hops over a slightly sweet malt with hints of honey.
T: Upfront there are some sweet notes of honey in an otherwise moderately grain malt flavor. There are slightly stronger than moderate amounts of floral, citrus/grapefruit, and tropical/mango hops which impart a light amount of lingering bitterness.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Light hints of dryness in the finish.
O: This beer smells and tastes extremely fresh and is a nice change of pace from many of the other heavier/darker/stronger beers that I have been enjoying this autumn. Very easy to drink and refreshing with a moderate to strong amount of hops imparting flavors and aromas without being overly aggressive or bitter.

On-tap at Keg & Lantern, Brooklyn, NY
A: The beer is relatively clear yellow in color with some amber hues. No carbonation is visible. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, leaving a coating of bubbles on the surface and down the sides of the glass.
S: Moderately strong aromas of citrusy hops are present in the nose along with some hints of floral hops.
T: Like the smell, the taste is dominated by flavors of citrusy hops and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
M: It feels medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer has nice bright and fresh aromas and flavors of citrusy hops. It also goes down rather easily.
