On tap pours out a crisp golden topped with a sand head. Nose is pine citrus hops and some caramel malts. Taste is more of the pine citrus hops and a nice sweetness.

Draft - Lots of grapefruit and peel. Clear gold with a decent white head. Bitter, resin, peel and more long lasting bitterness. Really bitter, but OK.

Bronze. Thin head. Earthy chewy, with a slightly sticky, and just a well balanced IPA, with a slightly berryish hop character.

On tap at Uber Tavern, pours a clear / hazy golden orange with a medium white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, along with vegetal and skunky herbal hops. Flavour reveals notes of skunky vegetal herbal hops, some pine, and some modest residual sugar. Very nicely balanced, with load of hops. Very nice stuff.

Draught at Brews Almighty, Everett, 4.8% ABV
Hazy amber color with compact head. Hoppy aroma, not extremely strong, with a light animal side. Good body strength, more than expected; the toffee malt is mostly evident, yet overwhelmed by the strong hopping; the flavor is caramelly, but also with plenty of resiny hops.
Good, but not elegant.

Draft pour. Piney, floral aroma. A storm of hops in this IPA. This is everything I look for in an IPA. Loved it.
