Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip. Consumed 01/18/2018.
Appearance: dark amber to almost dark mahogany color with a muted transparency about it and a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: big piney sweet to bitter hop tones with a sweet lemony hop tone underneath then some clean caramel/toffee malts underneath that
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas in a bitter to bittersweet sort of blend adding in an expected bitterness of grapefruit rind; finishes slightly dry with a bitter hop aspect
Texture: medium bodied, slightly sessionable; some smoothness but also a bit of dryness gripping the tongue; good carb and yes to the hop bitterness assertiveness but it's right where it should be
Overall: I say it works as an old school IPA that's cleaned up. I'd welcome this again.
