On tap at the brewpub: This poured deep copper. Wonderful aromas of tropical fruit (mango, pineapple, orange). In the mouth it was medium-bodied and concentrated with a dry, hoppy finish. The flavors in this one really hit my sweet spot.

One of the very best IPAs Ive tried. I thought the alcohol was well hidden but now I see 6 percent is not much to hide.

Draft at Rich O’s Lupulin Land Festival - Pours a hazy yellowish gold. Huge head, but not many bubbles. Aroma is great. Citrus all over the place. Palate is dissapointing. MUCH thinner than I expected. Not much character at all, and the finish is far too quick. One of the first FFF beers that I have been truly disappointed in. Not even sure if I would call what I had an IPA. Closer to their Pride and Joy with a little bit more hop bite.
