473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy amber gold with a large, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves thick, soapy lacing. Aroma of bready pale malt, caramel, grapefruit and light piney hops. Sweet flavour of biscuity pale malt, caramel, orange rind and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average to soft carbonation. Classic old-school west-coast IPA.

Piney and citrus notes. Clear gold with a rich beige head. Malty and bitter with pine and citrus. Definitely a throwback to the PNW IPA style.

Medium clean copper body and almost no head. Very soft hop on the nose. Flavour is heavy chewy hops and nothing else. Good mouthfeel, nice oiliness. Okay drinkable IPA but does not propel from the pack.

On tap at Red Truck, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out herbal hops, some vegetal notes, and biscuity malt. Flavour has a caramel malt character upfront, with subdued herbal hops and bready notes. Too malty, not enough hops, and just all round weakly constructed. Classic Red Truck.

Draught at the brewery
Hazy golden color. Aroma of PNW hops, citrusy and mildly piney. The malt base also shows some caramel, it's lean, Light residual sweetness, touch of biscuit, then the Cascade-like hops, some hop resins, robust bitterness.
Clean, not very vibrant, but ok.

Hazy but dull tan, with a medium head. Has a mellow fruity aroma. Light bitterness. Actually has a nice pale malt balance, though I'd say the hops aren't especially bright.
