Crisp, clear golden and light amber coloured body with a super large, seven centimetre tall just off-white micro-foamed head. Aroma of soap, grass, perfume, citrus and slightly resinous hops, all with some light sugars and touch of malt. Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy and herbal hop flavour throughout with a nice malt backbone, some subtle sugars and a good grassy finish. Aftertaste shows some subdued earth, a little malt bitterness, some earthy hops and a more complex finish with caramelised sugars and a touch of herbs. Overall, a very nice IPA that is purely non-West Coast and shows a good complexity throughout. Plus, add in the awesome can and you’ve got a good option if you live in Texas! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Spec’s Liqour in Dallas, Texas on 01-September-2015 for US$1,88 sampled at home in Washington on 10-November-2015, just a few minutes before heading right back to Dallas!

10 oz. draft at the brewery tasting room in Dallas, Texas. The pour is mostly clear golden with a 1/2 inch white head which is lasting. The aroma is faint cracker malt, along with floral hop. The taste is grain, bitter hop, grass hay and the cracker malt carries the back. The palate is light to medium bodied with active carbonation and bitter grain finish.

Sampled at the 2014 Untapped festival in Fort Worth. Pours a clear gold with a slight amber hue and a white head that dissipates nearly completely. Aroma has notes of pine and light citrus backed by some sweet grains. Flavor has much more pine with some resin and grapefruit backed by light grains.
