COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The very intense, complex aromatic character with a refreshing, crisp finish is achieved by dry hopping. The fruity, citrusy aroma is a nice complement with grilled prawns and spicy foods.

Bottle from Dirty_Martini. Hazy pale body with a small white head. Sweet hoppy nose with citrus, dough and honey. The flavor is lightly sweet, lightly bitter with orange peal, tangerine, flowers and cotton candy. Medium body is a bit thin with moderate carbonation. More of an APA than IPA.

22oz bottle from BevMo! Mission Valley. Pours a clear, golden amber with a 2 finger off white head. Faint aromas of pine and grapefruit. Flavor was semi sweet with a light bitterness on the finish. A fairly weak IPA.

Pours a clear gold/orange with a slight off-white head. Hops, caramel malt, citrus, and pine. Pretty standard stuff, but still not bad. Nothing to look for, but I’d still drink it.

on tap at papago... orange straw colored pour with a soft soapy-like head and lots of sudsy foamy spots of lace. the nose is a bit bubblegum-y with notes of grapefruit, orange and light non resinous pine... kinda like rosemary or juniper. the palate has an odd sweetness which grows as it warms.... it reminds me a little of GF west coast in it’s combination of malty sweetness and pine... flavors of bubblegum, candied orange, caramel malt and a dry pine related finish. medium body with and average mouth feel and pleasant carbonation from the tap. 6/3/6/3/14/3.2

Looks like a pilsner, clear gold, white head, nice hoppy flavor and aroma. At $2.79 per bomber, it’s a pretty good deal.

Reminds me a lot of bridgeport ipa. Floral citrus hops throughout without much sweetness up front. Crisp and dry in the finish with a slight pine resin aftertaste. Pours clear amber with a soft white head.

On tap at Good Microbrew in LA. Color was a clearish dark gold. Aroam of sweet malt, caramel, citrus and flowers (just a bit of those). Flavor wasn’t really good; not nearly as good as the aroma. Decently bitter. Ok.

(bottle - 12 oz) Cloudy orange pour with a frothy white head. Dry and bitter hop aroma with some floral and peppery notes underneath. Flavor is a bit dry at the start with a mild caramel backbone followed by a dry and very bitter and lingering hop bite. Decent but not that balanced for my taste.
