Bottle from the Arlington World Market. Poured a hazy orange with a flowing off white head that just wouldn’t stop.

As the head settled it started looking like awkward meringue sand castles. You know the castles you could make by drizzling wet sand out of your fist into a semi-Dungeons and Dragons castle kind of spire? Several of those about a quarter of an inch to an inch tall just chilling out in my beer... what the fuck?

Aroma of fruit and some hops. Good citrus flavor with not so much hop flavor, but plenty of good fry hop feel. Aftertaste is faint citrus. Dry.

Bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a white head. Aroma was piney and floral with a hint of citrus. Flavor was piney/floral hops, mild citrus and a touch of grapefruit with a medium body and has a lasting bitter finish.

Maybe I’ve been drinking too many IPAs lately, but nothing about this stood out for me. I would neither reject it nor try terribly hard to drink it again. Some floral, citrus, bitterness, malt (maybe a bit too much?) etc.

Bottle split with Tony. Pours a clear orange body with nice white foamy head. Aroma is clean hop. Taste is nice, bitter hops.

This beer is a hazy yellow-orange with a small white head and good lacing. Has a sweet citrus and floral hop aroma. The taste begins smooth, grows bitter, then finishes dry.

Draft. at the SInk. Golden with bigger white head. Aroma is very grassy and grapefruity. Flavor is typical IPA. nothing exceptional... pretty good. Not to bitter but really only hoppy in flavor.

Bottle. Clean light crisp IPA. Nothing outstanding but good none the less. The more I try the IPAs the more I like the style!

Bottle. Golden pour with a reasonable white head. Citrus/pine aroma. Fruity, malty, hoppy, bitter. Not one of my favourite IPA’s.
