On tap at the brewpub. Pours a cloudy orange with a thick white head. Aroma of pale, bready malts and floral hops. Flavor of nice caramel malt, grassy/garlicky hops, with a bitter finish. Reminds me of Smuttynose IPA in character, although less hoppy. Good stuff. 7/4/8/4/15 [3.8/5]

Draft. Pours clear gold with thin white head; decent retention and spare lacing. Aroma is grassy and floral hops, caramel malt, and straw. Flavor is light sweet malt, heavy floral and citrus hops, and average fruit esters; dry, slightly bitter finish. Medium body, carbonation, and warmth.

Tap. Pours clear orange with a medium, fizzy white head, medium retention with light lacing. Aroma is fruity and floral hops, pine and resin, fruity hops and biscuit malt. Flavor is moderate hops and bitterness, supporting malt, fruity esters and a dry finish. Medium body, warmth and carbonation.

Faint hoppiness on the nose. Pours with a thin head and leaves little lacing. Not much on the tongue but more hoppiness on the swallow. Not bad but not quit West coast.

On tap. Pours a slightly hazy orangish gold body with a minimal head. The nose is pretty nice, smells ultra-fresh with some grapefruit and lighter pine notes. A little caramel malt below the hops. The flavor is hop-forward and bright with citrus and resiny hop notes. Fairly heavy malt backbone without expressing much sweetness, it stays in the background pretty well. Medium bodied with a bit of resiny stickiness and nice firm carbonation. This was very solid.
