3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Clear orange/amber color with a small head. Aroma is sweet fruit punch/tropical fruit hops. The taste is medium bitter where the sweetness from the hops kicks in at the second half of the flavor. Very nice IPA with a nicely full mouthfeel. Enough body and malt thickness to stand up to the hops.
Sampler @ brewpub.

Appearance: Clear, yellow-orange body with a foamy, off-white head and spotty lacing.
Smell: Light pale malt aroma with a floral, soapy hoppiness.
Taste: Pale maltiness with a touch of graininss and just a hint of sweetness follow by soapy, floral hoppiness and a pronounced, yet reasonable amount of hop bitterness which lasts into the finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Currently being brewed at 6% ABV, it’s a solid IPA and has grown to be one of Cannon’s best beers in their lineup.

Score: 2.9 to 3.2
hazy dark gold, big creamy off white head, lots of spidery lace,
sweet crystal malt aroma with tons of citrus hops,
rich crystal malt flavor, nice malt sweetness is well balanced by lots of citrus hop flavor leading into a big bitterness, lasting bitter finish never goes away, eventually the bitterness continues to build until it takes over completely,

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap. Peach and strong hops aroma. Orange-amber color. Peach flavor primarily well blended with moderate hops. A pretty standard IPA - hops well represented without being overwhelming.

05 GCBC. Orangy copper pour - slight haze. Fairly hoppy aroma and flavor, but lacks a little in sweet malt - resulting in something a little light in body. I picked up a slight cooked veggie note in the aroma too.
