Location: Draft at the brewpub, 7/16/14

Aroma: the nose has some grapefruit/citrus, some caramel, and a little butterscotch
Appearance: The pour is an amber color, some off-white head, and some light lacework
Flavor: The taste is much the same, decent hop notes, malts, and a bit of sweetness
Palate: The body is medium, leaning light, with an okay mouthfeel, average carbonation
Overall Impression: This one wasn't a favorite for me. It is a solid enough example of a style, but just not one that quite hit the mark for my expectations.

Draft taster, June 7. Darker than the Best Coast IPA, almost brown, with a thicker, spongy head. I could not get a hop smell through, for some reason. Instead something like fresh river water??? No idea why I should be so discombobulated. Then I got a taste of chocolate on my first sip. Then some fruitiness on the way down. Don’t why, I’ve just gotta call them as I see them. Still nice.
