A full white head on a pale straw body. Very punchy and appealing aroma featuring kiwi, orange, lemon and a touch of pine. The taste profile starts a bit subdued but hop driven tropical fruit, orange, lemon and grapefruit elements grow after an understated start. Sweet malt with a touch of grain round out and balance the taste. Solid body and texture. Refreshing, pleasantly hoppy and well balanced.

A nice ipa, very pine, and grass forward. No tropical fruit, very little citrus like a good NE ipa would have. Pithy bitterness, medium bitterness, lots of pine and grass, soft pale malts.

Cloudly very light straw yellow. Taste is resinous, a little pine, over sweet hay malt. Lingering bitterness on the finish. It's passible.

Can from the Beer Store Slightly hazy light golden color with a decent sized tightly bubbled white head. Fruity earthy grassy citrus and tropical fruity with bits of bread and light caramel maltiness. Clean tasty easy to drink IPA.

Tap at Loaded Pierogie. A cloudy mellow honey gold with a filly white head and big citrusy bouquet. Medium bodied and pine and citrus. Classic IPA that while pedestrian is well executed. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can that pours a hazy golden colour with an orange hue. big frothy warm cap that stays long creating thick fluffy-foamy lace. Fresh hoppy nose with citrus juices. The taste is also citrus juices with some nice smooth bitterness, not bite. The dry mouthfeel is very nicely balanced. Goes down quite well for a stronger ale.

Level 42 Bottleshare. A can thanks to Wingman. Light haze on this gold beer, good white head. Palate is light and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth malts, light and a touch thin but with a nice light creamy sweetness. Light tangerine and orange. Light floralness into hop spice and mild bitterness. Touch of mango and orange on the spicy finish. Nice.

This IPA poured a cloudy light yellow colour with a bright white head. Scents include citrus, cream and hay. First swig had quite a lot of citrus flavour. Finish was quite bitter with lemon/orange hop flavour lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
