Draft @ brewpub. Dark red, murky. Doesn’t look like an IPA at all. Described as English style. Smells fruity. Cherry is big here, especially in the flavors that are huge bing cherry. So much, I would swear there were cherries added. Fun brew. Bitter ending reminds of hop but is balanced throughout. Love the cherry beginning and herbal bitter that follows makes for and interesting rustic brew.

On tap at the brewpub. Dark amber. Earthy, fruity aroma. Fruity character is quite unique. Earthy and balanced. Not really IPA, but I like it.

on tap-pours a minimal off white head and cloudy orange color. Aroma is orange/some pine. Taste is orange/resin/herbal hops with some bite, maybe some chile pepper, secondary medium malt. Soft/medium carbonation.
