On tap at the brewpub on 12/3/06: Pours a clear copper orange with a nicely-lacing frothy white head. Aroma of piny fresh green hops and some sweet grainy caramel malt. Body starts lightly sticky sweet and showing lots of bittering grapefruity hoppy flavor drying a little toward a balanced, bittersweet finish. A decent IPA.
