Pours a slightly hazy, light yellow, with smallish, lasting head. Aroma of citrus and tropical fruit. Flavor has citrus and tropical fruit notes, as well as some hop bite. Bitter finish. Not bad.

Draught @ the source. Hazy bright yellow with very small frothy whitish head, faint citrus aroma, medium carbonation, juicy lightly bitter orange taste with a hint of coriander, thin body, medium finish. Very smooth and drinkable.

On tap at Other Half, pours a clear gold with some tight, white head. Nose is nice, and different from the muddy NE IPAs they offer, some stone fruits, apricots, green grapes, lemon, lime, pine, grass, a little scape/scallion. Grain bill is nicely balanced and very clean, just a little cracker, a little honey, grass, pine, scallion, lime, orange. Finishes dry, bitter. Very nice, and a good contrast with the ’other half’ of the menu.

On tap at the source: pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma isfairly citrusy. Fair amount of bitterness in the taste. Pretty crushable and juicy. Lingering bitter aftertaste.
