3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20Bottle shared at a tasting at Dancing Camel Florentin. Slightly hazy amber. Aroma of caramelly and cookie-ish malt and slightly stale hops, citric and a bit piney. Sweetish malty flavor, a bit of grainy, with a bitter hoppy finish, a bit too short. Medium-bodied. OK, but seems past its prime.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a slightly cloudy golden color on tap with fluffy white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma of caramel and pale malts, backed by a citrus hop note. Taste follows, a nice bitter finish, good balance. Easy to drink IPA.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Translucent golden pour with a frothy white head. Mix of pine hops with a malt backbone, not as hoppy as a lot of the current American micro IPA’s. The flavor is a little better, very well balanced mix of the hops and a nice biscuit/bread malt finish. An IPA that isn’t focused on being as hoppy as possible but is still really good.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
bottle. Deep golden with small head. Light body and huge hops. Very nice west coast IPA. Hops are a very nice mix.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle. Pours hazy golden orange with a medium creamy white head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is piney, dank, oniony hops.
The flavor is sweet bready malts with a a big piney, resiny hop finish. There’s a little onion but not as much as expected from the nose. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation.
Overall, a decent IPA. It has good bitterness but a bit of onion.

Smells hoppy and kind of bittter. Clear golden color with bright white bubbly head. Ooh. The malt hits pretty early then a zing of zest then a barnyard grassy aftertaste. Damn good but kinda malty
