3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20Aromas of funky herbals, cat box, light pine, and biscuits and sweetish bread. Pours a hazy golden with lots of big bubbles and great lacing. The flavor is hoppy towards a garlic kind of thing, fresh leafy vegetables, pine, and some more cat box too. Maybe some weed. But mostly garlic and vegetables. Still it is not in a bad way. It is just a funky ass hoppy IPA. Malts are minimal but somewhat dry and biscuity with a light sweetness too. Lingering garlic hops. Not bitter, but you can tell they are there due to a stanky resonating presence. Pretty interesting and actually way better than my review makes it sound.

Poured from a bomber I got from letspour. Very cloudy dark orange pour, tons of fluffy white foam. Nice floral aroma. Not too hoppy, but a pleasant citrus and fruity flavor, slightly bitter. Very easy drinking.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bomber bought at Super 1 in Post Falls, ID. Pours murky orange-brown, making it look more like a seriously unfiltered Belgian ale than an American IPA. Has a medium collapsing off-white head that leaves a ring and skiff of ugly big-bubbly foam. Aroma isn’t all that assertive, but it’s lemon citrusy, caramel malt. Taste is a little worty, chalky; lightly bittersweet. Palate is average for style. Not too impressive. I wonder how old this thing is.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the Harmon Pub and Brewery. Pours a clear copper colored body with a thin, frothy and creamy, off-white head that dissipates slowly and leaves a moderate lacing. Aroma is pines and bitter grapefruits with a lightly sweetened, somewhat bready caramel malt backing. Flavor is similar. Bitter pines and grapefruits with a few floral notes and a smooth, somewhat bready, lightly sweetened caramel malt backing. Finishes dry and moderately bitter with a few resins and a light malt sweetness. Lengthy aftertaste following a medium body and a moderate carbonation. Overall, a decent IPA. Smooth and well hopped with a light caramel sweetness. Nothing special, but enjoyable.

Bottle from De Laurenti, Pike Market, Seattle
Cloudy amber color, with compact head. The hop aroma is mild, some cereals, light vanilla. Smooth mouthfeel, with good malt and cereals flavor, good bitterness level. Not rally fruity from the hops, not as fresh as expected; but well balanced.
