Bottle [from Secret Summer Santa 2015, thanks to ineedbeer] @ home. Clear yellow to slightly golden color, medium to full sized white to off-white head that lasts for a decent while. Aroma is lightly malts, loads of hop, grapefruit, slightly grassy, nicely pine in there lightly as well. Love it. Taste lightly malts, hops, again grapefruit with a touch of pine and moderately bitter. Medium body and carbonation. This is just pure hop juice. I mean it. Squeezed hops. Love it!

22 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma of bright piney hops, a little citrus tang, and a slight touch. Flavour brings out loads of piney hops, some citrus tang, a touch of floral hops, and a touch of orange-like fruits. Very pine-hop heavy, dry and a slight citrus tang. Exceedingly highly drinkable, with wonderful balance. Dry mouthfeel, with just enough fruitiness. Excellent stuff.

Draft. Amber beer with a light cream colored head. Big summer fruit aroma. Tropical fruit and citrus flavor with light earth. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Tropical fruit lingers with citrus and light dustiness.

Bistro 13th IPA Fest notes. Very good IPA, possibly excellent. Light to medium gold liquid with a white cap. Floral, tropical and pine notes dominated the aroma. Dry with a touch of rubber in the finish but it doesn’t spoil things. Otherwise, it’s a solidly bitter finish. Quite satisfying. Probably top five for the day.
