Rich copper and amber coloured body with a thin white head. Aroma of strong hops, grapefruit and pine - very nice! Medium-bodied; Strong hop flavours with a very piney and floral hop note and a significant malt backbone. A clean, yet bitter aftertaste with a very potent hop finish. Overall, great to try, especially since it’s only a local beer and nice for a brewpub! I sampled this pint on draught at Hop Cat in Grand Rapids, Michigan on 06-November-2010.

tap at the brewpub last summer - Pours amber and has ample citrus hops aroma. As expected it’s big on the hops bitterness. There are also citrus notes and a little pine. It’s medium bodied with a long, bitter finish. The one downside is that it’s not as crisp as I’d like, but it’s still good.

On tap at HopCat. Pours a kind of orange color with a thin head and aromas that are just flat out good IPA stuff... a bit of pine and citrus and a little caramel malt. Flavor is very good... maybe the hops was a little crisper on this batch than on previous ones, but the pine and grapefruit stood out nicely against the malt backdrop. Finish was sharp and refreshing.

Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a hazy vibrant orange color with a large frothy brown head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of citrus and floral hops. The taste is bitter hops, resin, citrus and some tropical notes, as well as caramel. Medium-full bodied.
