Very floral IPA with a clean crisp finish. A short spike of bitterness mellows on the swallow to a classic IPA flavor.

7.3/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 8
Golden orange with a white head. Aroma is full of citrus, some tropical notes, light toasted pale malt, sweet fruit throughout. A very standard IPA. Easily forgettable but well-brewed.

12 oz can poured. A hazy golden yellow pour with an expanded foam head. Soft, grainy aroma with a piney hop. Flavor is a gentle cereal grain, mild piney hop bitterness, and a cool, mostly empty finish. Pretty refreshing. Feels very light in a lot of ways for an IPA. Bitterness seems to fade in a dry finish, and return. Not bad, but I wanted more depth and flavor here.

12 ounce can. Pours a clear copper color with a small white head. A sweet lemon biscuit nose. The flavor is big biscuits, caramel, lemons, a bit dusty. Odd one.

Draught at The Beer Junction, Seattle
Hazy blond color with compact head. Citrusy and piney hops, on a crisp, crackery malt base, very dry; some lemon toffee in the final.
Excellent IPA.

Draft - Biscuity malts with some perfumy hops. Clear dark gold with a decent white head. Biscuity and some bittering hops. A bit boring, which is unusual for them.

On tap at The Beer Junction, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of diacetyl, some light piney hops, and biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with a big diacetyl problem dominating. Could be good if they fixed this issue, but as is, it's not pleasant.
