on tap-pours a foamy offwhite head with hazy gold color. Aroma is citrus/pine hops. Taste is somewhat bitter citrus/pine hops, second medium malt. Nice.

Sweet and full aroma of citrus and hops. This is a good swisher brew, with complex palate. At times, the hops are citrus-like and at others, spicy w/ a kick. A good IPA that gets better as it warms to room temp.

on tap at brewpub. Color is a beautiful dark orange with small head. Aroma of sour grapefruit, citrus and flowers. Very nice. Flavor was nice blend of citrus and slight sweetness. Finishes a bit muted, but overall very pleasant. This is my favorite Willimantic IPA so far!) 3.7.

Pours amber with a thin off white head. Smells of perfume, pronounces resin, some grapefruit, dry malt. Tastes of dry malt with a nice resiny character and a hint of bitter citrus and perfume on the finish. Another masterful IPA from these guys.

On tap at the brewpub, listed at 6.7%. Murky orange-brown with a thin tan head. Big pine resin and citrus nose, some floral notes, thick caramel. Chewy resiny flavors of pine and orange over dark caramel. Full side of medium bodied. Lasting citrus burn. Excellent!
