12 oz bottle purchased at Julio’s in Worcester Ma. Pours a amber color with a 1/2" white head. Minimal lace on glass. Aroma is all citrus hops. Nostril clearing strong citrus hops. Palete is medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavor is hop forward with a nice sweet malt background. Starts bitter, ends bitter. Very nice.

Bottle. Pours a medium amber with a thin fizzy head. Good lacing on the glass. The aroma is of piney hops with a hint of sweetness. The flavor is all hops, with a hint of malts. A very bitter finish that lingers on. Medium mouthfeel makes this very easy to drink.

22oz bottle. Pours translucent ruby orange with a large fluffy white head that leaves some great lacing on the glass. Citrus hops aroma and flavor with a fantastic balance of sweet malts, caramel, and floral hops. Subtle bitterness with a dry resinous finish and medium body make this extremely easy to drink. A delicious beer.

Bottle thanks to machfive55. Pours a clear amber orange with a thick finger of lengthy off white head with lovely cracked glass lacing. Huge orange, grapefruit, and lemon citrus aroma with undertones of herbal hops. Taste is a soft caramel body layered over top with more floral, citrus, and lightly herbal hops. Not much bitterness, very sweet and satisfying.

Dark amber pour, a little dark for an ipa. Dissipating head. Aroma is absurdly citrus, lemon zest, orange peel, red grapefruit. Floral, grassy hop notes come out in the flavor. smooth, not too much bite but very balanced.

Pours brownish copper with minimal head. Aroma is mostly citrus- grapefruit and orange with floral notes. Flavor is grassy, floral and resinous. Hop character is excellently prepared. Palate is thick and resinous with a bone dry finish. Excellent example of the style.
