A: slight haze; deep gold in color; a 1+ finger ivory head that receded slowly to a thin cap; nice lacing;
S: somewhat restrained; what's there is earthy first, then tropical fruit - mainly mango;
T: earthy, then mostly catty from start to finish; mild to moderate bitterness at the end;
M: medium bodied; moderate carbonation; moderately dry finish;
O: I don't particularly care for the aroma and flavor combinations, but this is a solidly made IPA:

12 oz bottle served in a lager glass.
Hazy golden body topped with a semi-durable white head with very good lacing.
This single male/single hop IPA features the aroma and flavor of Delta hops. It's about average in bitterness and moderately strong for style, with no shortage of hop flavor. While the aroma has some skunkiness, this is diminished to a totally acceptable level in the fruity-skunky-herbal flavor.
O: a worthy introduction to this hop variety.
