This is the first time I have had any type of IPA that was nitrogen pushed. The appearance was great, a nice rich amber color with a very smooth white head that lasted the whole beer. Great lacing, covered the whole side of the glass. The smell of this beer was very floral with the slight hint of rye bread.
The taste of this beer was different and really good. A very smooth initial taste that reminded me of a hoppy stout, but after you had it in your mouth a second you got the hop bite on the back of your tongue. It was a pretty strong hop bite that had a very balanced flavor of rye. The moughtfeel was really good, very smooth with a nice thickness and the Nitrogen was perfect.
All in all a great beer and I would like to see more IPAs NO2 pushed. If your around the Fresno area it's worth a try to stop by and see if this one is on tap.

Nice! Another fine offering from Kevin.
As this is a nitro push, you get the "show", when the show dies down, a velvet cream head with incredible lace all the way down.
A golden amber, slightly cloudy color.
Very smooth, first sips are more like a mild [or at least to this hop head] then the hop bitterness slips to the back of your tongue, and a nice rye finish on the sides of your tongue. Tastes like a velvet IPA! After half the pint, the wonderful IPA bitterness is very present in the aftertaste.
Very nice, gotta be careful with this as there is almost no alcohol taste, and the 7.5% easily slips up on you.
Very well balanced, I'd like to think this is what an English Cask conditioned IPA [with a little rye addition] might taste like.
