A golden amber IPA with a thin white head. A nice caramel malt with light floral hops. In mouth, a nice oily malt with floral c-hops, a bit of bile bitterness. A nice honest IPA. Medium bodied. On tap at brewpub, August 16 2009.

Sampled at the brewpub. Transparent amber/gold. Spicy, fruity nose. Strong flavor, bitter, soapy. The finish is kind of nondescript but oddly, I enjoy this. Seems to be a big seller too.

Draft at the brewpub. Aroma of floral hop. Amber color with nice white head. Thin to medium in body with near creamy carbonation. Floral hop dominates the malt. Citrus is also present. Finish seems nicely done. Malt is detectable but bitter tingles the palate. Seemed a bit bland after cleansing with white bread, but the floral aspects seemed enhanced. Maybe it deserved a higher rating.
