Bottled April 29th. Bought at Liquor Shed.

It pours clear gold, head of foam is nice with good lacing.

Dry hopped smell with tropical fruit, grapefruit, some definite bitterness.

Dry hoppy but not without a juicy factor, grapefruit dominates but there is also cracker and caramel malt. Like what you get in a DIPA which this isn't that far from.

Good mouthfeel, good drinker. Reasonable at ~$4.50 for the 650 ml bottle.

Draft @ Beer wars. Golden orange color with a sandy head. Hop aroma is moderate, mostly citrus and light in the florals. Moderate bitterness. There is some spicy hop notes in the end, sort of herbal and floral, kind of earthy in fact. Any sweetness from the nose is now overshadowed before a lingering bitter tail. It’s a little off the beaten path from the other IPA’s I had today, but I found this to be very likeable.
