growler into a vijf duvel glass. 7.2 says the brewery people, and an iced version says the brewer. This is nicely hopped, solo style, dirty grass, soil, dank weed, and malicous hop stir around casually. Color is neon orange at times, yellowish, and hazy tan. Head is small but surfacing. Brew holds its own directly, with subtle variations among hop and malt balacne, but this is quite intriguing as the singularity brings forth still, an extremly quaffable brew. Totally kills the shipyard single hop ipa. A nice endeavor towards the style, this one is great.

Draft. I'm a loser rating this beer in front of a beautiful girl. Here we go. Bronze , nice lace smell is faint for an iPa. Same goes for taste. Pretty sessionable ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle from one of the awesome Wandering Star guys whose name I can’t fathom at the moment, at the Blind Tiger after Andy had left and I was chatting with Cuzme. Pours a clear golden amber with a thin white head. Candied mango and dried fruits. Soft caramel and toffee. Sweet and musky. More candied fruits. Long dry bitterness, dried fruit, candied mango, soft grapefruit bitterness. Lovely and super sessionable.

Draft at UES Pony with puzzl. Pours a murky amber body with thin white lacing. Aroma is muted, bitter hop and very light musk. Mouthfeel is super bitter but very one dimensional before the malt hits. I don’t get any Nelson out of this which is a shame. Light sweet caramel in the finish.
