I’m surprised, with OP not being shy with the hops, this was overly present in their IPA. Very floral in the nose. Slight spice and citrus nice hops, but not quite enough. Bite lingers in the finish a bit. Not a bad IPA, just not special. On par with many regular pales, Siera Nevada comes to mind.

On tap at Olde Peninsula brewpub. Cloudy light amber with a thin white head. Aroma of citrus hops, grapefruit and some grassy hops. Taste is more of the same, with a somewhat bland grapefruity finish. Perhaps a little thin.

Growler acquired in trade with hoppymeal (and an extra to boot - thanks!!!). Poured a cloudy orangish color wih an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of floral hops, citrus, and some pine. Tastes of floral hops, citrus, and a trace of caramel. Medium grapefruit bitter finish.

Draft sample at OPB. Poured a hazy amber color with an average white head that lasted and produced good lacing. Good hoppy citrus aroma. Medium body with soft carbonation. Moderate hoppy bitter flavor with a medium bitter finish of average duration. Good brew.
