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.

On tap at Harry’s Hobrau. Aroma of tropical fruit and orange dominate with sweet malt grain backing. Hazy light orange with full white head. Moderate citrus and tropical flavors with strong bitterness.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with a medium white head and nice lacing. Aroma is strong peach and grapefruit. Flavor is same plus light caramel, lightly sweet and a light bitter finish. Quite a nice IPA.

Tap at The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours hazy medium orange/amber with a lacing 3 finger white head. Huge, mostly tropical, fruit aroma. Med body. Flavor is very fresh, bitter, fruity. Bordering on astringent. Brilliant ale.

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.
