3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Pours a clear amber gold with medium off-white head that lingers. Aroma of piny hops, grapefruit, and sweet malts. Fairly creamy for an IPA, very smooth, with a slight bitter aftertaste. Well done!
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at the brewery with Linh. Pours a slightly hazy amber body with white lacing. Aroma is soft, floral hops. Mouthfeel is creamy and fluffy with notes of floral hope and pine. A tad bland, but if the hops were a bit brighter this sucker would be a knockout.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle I never in knew was available in Atlanta. Little fusel alcohol hop on the finish. Not my favorite profile. Aroma is a little more herbal and floral. Pretty sweet and nice malt body. The hops on the finish make me not love this one though.
3.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
From bottle at Pourhouse in Gastown. Served in a short-stemmed beer glass. Little head, but nice lacing. A cloudy orangey brown. Flavor? Well! It’s sort of like a big hop beer and a big malt beer in the same glass. Right up my alley, so to say. Nice!

Hazy orange color with lofty lacing. Aroma of pine, honey, and roasted malt. Very malty taste with a little bit of citrus aftertaste. Very bitter. Decent little IPA.

22oz bottle This was purchased at Total Wine and More in Western Henrico. The head frothed up and filled the glass. The ale poured a hazy orange with lacing down the glass. The medium bitterness was floral with grapefruit like flavors. The finish leaves a residual bitterness in your mouth.
