12oz bottle pours with a clear gold body that supports a thin white head of foam. The aroma offers up sweet malts and resiny pine hops as well as faint floral hop notes around the edges. The taste has a pleasing mix of sweet malts and bitter resiny pine hops that run headlong into firm floral hoppiness. This is nice drinking stuff where there’s a tasty balance of bitter and resiny hops as well as malt sweetened flavor hops.

From the bottle. Pours light orange, hazy, medium white head, leaves a bit of lacing. Pine, dank, citra hops in the nose. Good body, some malt, but mostly grassy, citrus-tasting hops with underlying pine and resin. Bitter finish lingers.

This isn’t a very good IPA. From the first smell I thought it was gonna be good. Thought I was picking up on some floral and citrius hop. But it was way too cold, my 3 year old turned the fridge down to near freezing. The taste was a bit off, possibly the malt, kinda weird finish and didn’t mix well. As it warmed it became pungent and filled with flavors of a dirty urinal. Pass on this one.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy light orange color with a white head that settles to a film. Heavy aroma of cirtusy hops. Medium body, taste of citrus hops with some pine notes. Leans more to the hop than the malt but not overpowering. Finish is of bitter pine. Very good!!!

Bottle from halftimebeverage, clear golden pour, citrus and resin hop scents. Taste is a lot of citrus blended with a nice resin/dank profile.

Aroma is very floral with some fruitiness as well. Only faint cracker malt notes - no caramel in aroma. I like the fruit and floral forward hop aroma more than some of the juicy fruit aromas of late.
Pours a slightly cloudy pale gold with a thin white head that quickly recedes. Minimal lacing and small legs.
Flavor is nice cracker malt notes with minimal caramel that adds a touch of complexity. Some sweet floral hop flavors mid palate with a bit of a dank, grassy hop flavor in the finish. Bitterness is moderately strong but fairly clean. Finishes moderately dry.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Astringency is low as is alcohol warmth.
Overall a nice IPA with an enjoyable hop aroma. I find the hop flavor a bit lacking but this is a very drinkable IPA.
