A session IPA that is very easy drinking. Big juciy resin and floral fruit aroma; dry-hopped Australian Galaxy hops bring mango & passionfruit and dry-hopped experimental American HBC 342 add lemon and melon. The hop bitterness is balanced by lemon zest and citrus hop flavors. Vienna and Munich malt balance the hops with subtle toast and biscuit sweetness.

Draft at the brewpub. Poured a clear amber color with a very small off-white head, dissipated quickly, low carbonation. Aroma is sweet, grapefruit notes, some tropical characteristics. Flavor is light grapefruits, orange, unfortunately a little forgettable for the rest of their offerings, but pretty session-able with my dinner.

Draft sampled at the brewpub. Pours clear golden with a white head. Hoppy aroma of citrus light grapefruit and light floral aspects with caramel malt. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and moderate bitter. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation.
