3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20redish gold pour, thin head. The apricot comes through up front and then the piney bitterness shows through. Very long bitter finish is a little unpleasent. An ok IPA. Not sure how many I could have considering the bitter finish.

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Poured up on tap at the brewpub with a hop hazed deep gold body that supports a tan head of foam. The aroma is slightly dank and earthy and spicy with a slight malt sweetened sense of citrus around the edges. The taste has a nice load of bitterness with spicy hops to go along with dank like earthy hops. The hop bitterness hits firmly up front and is only slightly filled in with faint sweet malts and hop flavor but this allows it to stay light and refreshing. Nice stuff.
