Draught at the brewery; 8.1% ABV
Hazy amber color, compact head. Nice IIPA , not too sweet, bold; the malt flavor is a bit caramelly and chewy; the hops provide a strong resiny and orangey character.
Nice.

Draft - Sweet grapefruit notes. Clear gold with a rich white head. Bitterness up front with lots peel. A bit too bitter, but OK.

On tap at WA Winter Beer Festival 2015, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of pine, a touch of diacetyl and bready malt. Flavour is similar, with piney and resinous hops, some diacetyl and bready malt. Some problems here. Not a huge issue but it's not well-balanced.
