Medium body + white grapefruit notes + unfiltered
This IPA is a big citrus bomb of white grapefruit with hints of Meyer lemon zest. It’s made with only the choicest of continental pilsner and wheat malts and pungent hops from Yakima Valley; an East meets West showdown of ingredients and styles. The bitterness lasts, but at a pleasant, well-balanced level.
HOPS: Azacca, El Dorado, Mosaic
MALT: Continental Pilsner, Wheat

Cloudy blond color. Dry IPA, with crisp delicate malts, the hopping is very dank, and it has a prominent spicy profile, coriander. Piney and resiny in the final.
Very nice.

Draft pour pint at Special Brews. Pours a pineapple juice color and consistency with a rocky foam head. Big time grassy hop aroma. Flavor is creamy and bitter citrus fruit with an obvious grassy element. Cool flavor and very tasty. Some straw grain reminder late. Interesting IPA. One that I can crush with zero effort. Subtle sweetness late. Very nice.

Opaque, very hoppy, grapefruity, lots of bitterness. Refreshing. Looks like juice but is a very tasty character.

On tap at Aslan, pours an opaque cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out citrus hops and maybe a hint of the lemon. Flavour is fairly dank in the hop department, along with light citrus. A dank hop bomb really, without much lemon contribution. A little harsh, but it's an interesting, robust IPA. Solid.
