This poured a cloudy lighter orange color with a white head. Aroma was lots of fruity citrusy hops and just the slightest hint of malt. Flavor was nice light fruity hops upfront, followed by a bit of a heavy malty presence in the back and finishing with a long bitter aftertaste. A nice session IPA

From growler. A terrific nose on this one. Big juicy hop aroma; pine, resin, and a bit of citrus. Sweet hints with a bit of pale malt. Cloudy golden amber body with huge pillowy foamy lacing head. Medium watery body with medium-high carbonation. Starts with light pale malt and biscuit. Juicy piney hops and a bit of spice with great bitterness. Not harsh or astringent at all, with huge hop oil flavor at the finish. Mild sweet apricot-bitter after. Nice session - I hope this becomes a regular.

Grower pour from Nate. Pours golden yellow, hazy, rimming white head. Grass, litter box nose. Nice caramel and bread backbone wih moderate bitter, bubblegum and cotton candy. Just IPA bliss.
