Poured cleared orangey with a foamy, irresistible, off-white head. Smells of pine cones, sauerkraut, cardboard and fish oil. Tastes of hops, light candi sugar, paper, and fir tree bark. Not very much citrus detected in this one; a shame but still a pleasant experience nonetheless.

Fruity aroma with a hint of caramel. color is orange fairly see through. Sweety flavor with minimal hoops finish. Very drinkable but not smoothing too special.

12oz bottle. Light orange pour with frothy white head. Aroma of tropical fruits - mango and pineapple primarily - some pine resin, bitter citrus fruit, sweet caramel malt; the bottle is coming up to its expiry date so I guess that explains why the hop character seems a bit subdued. Taste is much the same, with tropical fruits combining well with the pine, zingy citrus, juicy orange, and the caramel malt backbone. Nice bitter bite to the aftertaste. This is a great beer, no doubt, but would be even better drinking it in a fresher condition.

Poured a hazy orange color with a medium-sized white head. Pine in the aroma with some spruce and lots of citrus. Body is very flavorful with lots of orange and citrus. Some pine towards the finish. Not too syrupy. Slightly sweet towards the beginning with different fruits. Overall very tasty.

Keg @ The Euston Tap. Deep amber orange with a big white head. The nose is filled with mango, pinapple, seagrass and wood. Hoppy indeed. The taste is medium bitter, some sweet juicy hop notes. Plenty of tropical fruit with a sugary sweet finish. Nicely balanced, hop-forward indeed, but not overly so. Overall, a very nice IPA. I can only imagine how good it is when super fresh.

On tap at the Well in KC. Poured clear deep golden with wispy bright white head. Lots of lacing. Nose is floral, citrus, pine, weed, wheat. Flavors of green, fresh hops, citrus and resin. Pleasant, mild hop bitterness and reasonable malt backbone. A little thin on the body but overall this is really nice.

Mild aroma compared to most ipas. Flavor is nothing to write home about. Hazy brown orange hue. Its an IPA and that’s about it.
