Small white rim over golden -orange beer with a faint haze. Hops, lupuline, asafoetida, bit cheesy, very little fruitiness. Bitter-hopoil intoned, flavours of orangerind, grapefruit(peel). Very good carbonation, hopoilslick, slightly wry. Quite good, certainly for its ABV.

Can from the brewery, pouring a golden colour with a light orange hue. Fluffy-soapy off-white head with good retention and foamy patch lacing. Fresh grassy hop smell with some caramel base, citrus and pine hints. Particles are showing after next pour. The bitterness is one that builds. Loads of citrus peel and some big dryness. Oh yeah, it is getting more and more bitter. American IPA alright, so a little too hoppy for my likings.

16 oz. can shared by ClarkVV and purchased at the source 2 hours prior. Flavor is malt forward up front with hops coming in at the back but not defined. Kind of generic.

Tons of pine resin. With all the hop varieties used in this beer, I find only pine and herbal notes. Not much other character. Considering the brewer this is a huge let down.
