22oz bomber pours with a crystal clear copper body that supports a thin tan head. The aroma offers up malts, crystal malts, pine hops, citrus candy and some floral hoppiness. The taste delivers a pleasing burst of hop bitterness with grapefruit, pine hops and then leading into floral hop bitterness. Afterwards crystal malts and slightly roasted malts join in among the bitter and modestly juicy hops that help take this to midway and into the finish. This has plenty of bitter hoppiness and depth to keep it cohesive. Nice.

22oz bottle picked up at Harmons
Pours clear golden with a medium sized off-white head, good lacing. Aroma is herbal, citrus, cereal and caramel. Taste is malty, grainy, caramel, citrus and resin
A decent session IPA. I’m glad to see another brewery sending some new beers to Utah.
