12 oz can. Clear orange with a thin beige head. Nose is orange, caramel and pine. Medium light with buzzy, stinging carb; a touch sticky. Taste is grapefruit pulp, bitter lemon and toffee. Dry finish with sweet dough. Would be good with BBQ.

Dry, aromatic, and bitter. The hops are really fresh tasting a subtle malt backbone kicks in at mid-palate. Wow this is very dry This certainly has the makings of a go to camping beer for sure.

A trippy can that looks like its from 60/70’s... Poured into a pint glass, nice head, very light red in color. Nice nose, light grass, citrus and pine. Taste has a sharp bitterness to it. Piney and grassy hops. Its a little thin on texture. Dry and a it does have a litte metalic taste to it. Definetly could use some more malts but overall a decent ipa... Thanks robert for sharing

Can Shared by Robert @ Stateline. Poured amber color with white head. Aroma is fruity hops. pine and caramel. Taste was similar but a little watered down for my taste. Just ok.

Small offwhite head thats short lived. Clear, copper orange hued brew. Nose is a bit grassy, sugary with some light malt notes. Body is medium with a good carbonation level. Clean. Dry maltiness backed by a light hoppiness, some pine and faint citrus notes, grass and earthyness, light metallic notes plus some caramelly maltiness. Dry, lightly fruity finish, good bite. An ok IPA. Can procured @statelineliquors.

Canned, sampled at SBWF08, Stockholm. Pours out in a amber colour with a rich white foam. Hoppy, fruity fragrant aroma of pine and grapefruit eith touches of apricots and caramel. Medium-bodied with notes of grapefruit, lemon-zest, flowers and pine-needles with touches of mango. Long bitter finish of grass, pine and grapefruit with sweet floral undertones. Tasty!

Pours a lovely orange-amber with a plentiful head. The aroma is at first of hops, then a hint of metal. The up front malt flavor comes as a bit of a surprise following the hearty hop aroma, and backs up the abundant hops nicely - a good backbone for the hops to mingle with. I could drink this often.

This golden ale poured from a can with a large fluffy beige head and a caramel malt aroma. This is a well-crafted brew, as evident in its complex malt base overlaid with tasty, but not overdone hopping. A very enjoyable drink.
