pours amber/orange with a nice clear and lasting white head.
Aroma is very refreshing. Notes of hops, malts, fruits with grapefruit and sweet citrus aromas.
Taste, light palate, pale malts with sweet fruity notes of grapefruit and hints of caramel. Very faint bitter mouthfeel. Highly drinkable with nice velvety palate.
My kind of APA/IPA not swarmed by bitter hops. This is a fine nice beer.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 jmw141 (134) - Canton, Illinois, USA - FEB 17, 2009
12 oz. bottle poured into pint glass.
Pours clear orange wit a frothy head that leaves quite a bit lying on top. A few bubbles are seen rising to the top.
Floral and pine hops aroma is strong. Citrus too.
Citrus sweetness at first, but within two seconds the hops kick in. Hoppy, but not overly hoppy. They come on a little stronger after a few seconds and then lightly linger in your mouth until the next drink.
Medium bodied, hops tingle the tongue. Not super bitter.
Pretty drinkable. Quite hoppy, but it should be and you should be expecting it.
