Commercial Description:
An American IPA.Agressive use of fruity American hops is what this beer is all about. An intense hop bitterness, followed by a balancing hop flavor and full hop aroma. Notes of citrus and grapefruit may be detected.. This is our hoppiest beer.

Cask on tap at the Empire State Brew Fest in Syracuse. Good but not great. Some malt, some hops but there is more in the nose than the actual taste. Nothing spectacular Would not buy again

Apricot colored body. Fruity, nectar-like nose. Flavors include fruit (white grapes) and perfume… also very yeasty.

The buzz of the re-opening of this place was biased toward this amarillo hop beer. It was decent, one of the better ones I tried. It is grapefruit and bitter. Lots of lace. Grapefruit aroma as well. An average IPA. Something in the balance and perhaps the carbonation that could be tilted.
