On tap at Free State, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out bright piney hops, light resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is bright and crisp, with vibrant piney hops, some resins, and crisp biscuity malt. Bright, vibrant, clean, balanced and drinkable. Excellent.

Ever so slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a very thin, pure white head. Aroma of very fresh and incredibly piney and grapefruity hop notes with a lot of bitterness noticeable along with some grass and herbs around the edges. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and herbal flavours at first that seem to go away and fade to just about nothing along with some light bitterness and grapefruity and citrus notes which are strong, but not supported by much malt at all - this is quite thin and showing the hops front and centre. Aftertaste shows the grass, citrus, pine and a dose of flowers, but no malt and no alcohol notes - this is about the hops and from more of a dry perspective. Overall, a decent enough beer with some nice hop flavours that contain bitterness, but not body or depth - just on the front of the tongue and not long-lasting. Not worth bringing back home, so I'm glad I sampled this locally! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased a few hours ago at Hy-Vee in Omaha, Nebraska on 14-March-2018 for US$1,67 sampled on the same day in my hotel room here in Omaha, Nebraska.

12oz bottle. A pretty classic NW IPA, well done, with some modern hop sensibility. Little bit of a diesel oniony touch with the Citra and Simcoe. Amarillo ties them together well. My bottle actually says Columbus, Centennial, Citra....so maybe that is that. Either way, solid offering.

Pour is a cloudy yellow witha a large white head. Aroma is a nice tropical fruity hop with some onion and cat piss mixed in as well. Flavor is more of thr tropical citrus fruit flavor of the hops. No sweet caramel malts here this beer is as dry as a desert. This is my kind of IPA, plenty of flavorful fruity hops with no sweetness or alcohol showing.
