2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Slightly hazy with a nice orange hue. Spicy nose. Malts were chewy, grainy and toasty. Hops were bold, with hints of grass, citrus, pine, and weed (agree with pdee here). Healthy amount of bitterness to boot. A little rough around the edges.

Slightly cloudy orange, small frothy head. Aroma is kinda sour, funky hops. Barnyard? Smells kinda like weed. Taste is grainy, metallic, dry. Lots of bitter hops. Finish is dry, metallic. Tastes cheap.

Beer pours a hazy, medium yellow-gold color with a small, white, fizzy, mostly and quickly diminishing head. The aroma is malty with light notes of toasted grain, cookie and caramel; overwhelmingly hoppy with strong notes of skunk/pot, resin/pine; yeasty with light notes of dough; miscellaneous light notes of honey and peach. The flavor is moderately sweet, heavily bitter with a longer-than-average heavily bitter, moderately warm finish. The body is light, the texture is watery and the carbonation is lively.

On tap on site. Smells good - hoppy actually. This is hoppier than some IPAs I’ve had, but not from here. A pretty dry finish, but quite nice enough that it’s hard to think of this as a malt liquor.

Draught. Pours a brilliant golden hay-straw with a small rocky white head and lined lacing. Fruity hop aroma surprises you and then leads way for a complex mixture of malt (meal, wheat) and corn (faint) with yeast (dough) notes. Fruity citrus hop (orange) flavor, lightly acidic and bitter, corn and malt body. Light bodied and crisp, extremely refreshing on the palate. This could be a great thirst quencher on a hot day.
