3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Single bottle. Pours a hazy copper with minimal head. Mild lacing. Nose is dominated by malt with some floral hops. Hop character seems a little trampled by the malt. Some peculiar sweetness in the finish. Overall, not bad but kind of an awkward IPA.

Nice looking, bright orange, hazy. Nose is mild pine forest. Nose starts with a bit of malt, the middle has plenty of hops, that give way to a clean finish with a bit of lemon.
