3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 KansaiBeerLvrs (274) - Kyoto, JAPAN - JUN 6, 2013
4.8% at CBB. Great floral, citrus hop aroma with a pale gold color. Medium body, floral flavor then some malt and it ends with citrus lemon notes. My first sessionable IPA is pretty nice! I like the low ABV but it is a bit too bitter and slightly one dimensional... easy to drink though, I downed my half-pint in no time.

Hazy orange in color. 2 centimeters head. Citrus and pine flavors. Very drinkable. Definitely worth another try.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 5000 (5000) - Hardened Liver, Washington, USA - MAY 3, 2013
Can:   Golden, very slight sediment, moderate white head, spotty lacing.   Citrus oriented hop nose.   Smells a little candied, and inviting.   Soft resiny hops up front, slowly fades towards the back.  
Bitterness is mild.   This is not a bruiser of an IPA.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate.   Clean finish, hoppy, some citrus peel.   Not as sweet as it started, but decent.   Respectable offering.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 jgb9348 (4030) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - MAR 8, 2013
Very hazy golden coloured body with an orange tint and a thinnish, one centimetre tall pale white head. Aroma of resinous and very dank hops with a hint of citrus and maybe a bit of pine. Light-bodied; Sharp pungent hop flavour at first with a faint malt backbone and a good, pungent hop bite at the end showing flowers and a bit of pine. Aftertaste is mainly just the hop bitterness, but a little malt comes in, but really this is all about a very low-key, high hopped beer with an easy drinking and bitter floral note. Overall, this is exactly what I was expecting from the beer - and one that I frankly enjoy - an easier drinking IPA with bunches of hops and doesn’t weigh me down - great! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Pear Delicatessen in Seattle, Washington on 11-February-2013 for US$1.70 sampled at home in [the real] Washington on 08-March-2013.

On draught at Dexter and Hayse Public House- Seattle. Pours a very dense and hazy orangish
amber color with a lasting fine white head and lace. Minimal aroma. Medium body with effervescent mouthfeel. Solid hops bitterness. Hop-over-malt flavor balance. Refreshing.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 arrogantb (1398) - Denver, Colorado, USA - NOV 10, 2012
12oz can thanks to Harrymel. Orange color, decent head. Smells a little odd then the dry hopping comes through. The taste is decently hoppy but not much else, oddly. Overall, I’m not quite sure this is quite a session beer at 4.7%, I’d prefer 4.0% for something truly sessionable however this might be a good choice for hiking given the alcohol and the can.

This is one of those beers that might be mislabeled as an IPA. it has a nice citrus and pine aroma from a light amber with a thin lacing head. The flavor has a nice sweetness to it balanced by the hops. It is very refreshing.

Portland, Or - John’s Marketplace - 12 oz can. Dark golden pour, sticky snow white head that leaves plenty of lacing. Fresh light spruce aroma, floral hints. Flavor has a nice hoppy bitterness to it with some grassy notes thrown in there and some back end nuttiness. Mouthfeel is thick and sticky. Pretty decent.
