Hazy pale yellow pour with a huge white head and epic retention. Great lacing. Tastes like a citrusy pale ale. Low bitterness. Pretty decent.

A hazed blonde ipa with a thin lacing off white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with light floral hops, cascade, light citrus, OK. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with grassy resinous floral hops, grapefruit pulp, nice and smooth. On tap at Syracuse Winter Brewfest 2017.

On tap at magic hat brewing. Pours out a hazy gold topped with a white head. Nose is pine citrus hops more of the pine upfront and a little cereal malt. Taste is more of the pine hops along with some of the cereal grain malts.

This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy burnt ruddy orange color with a thin finger’s worth of white foamy head that quickly dissipated. Remnants of some moderately light lace formed light wide streams sticking to the glass.
The smell started off with some sweet dried onion running over some grassy tones. Opens up into some sweet citrus as it warms.
The taste was mainly the same in a mild sort of way. Light sliding dry and dirty grassiness in the aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium in body. Definitely sessionable. Some bitterness hits my tongue shyly.
Overall, as a session IPA, I can see it. I just can’t see it as a stand out one.

12 oz. bottle. Slightly hazy gold. Nose is very weak citrus, nothing more.
Flavor… well, where is the flavor? Barely any hops, thin and watery texture. Is there any malt here? Not offensive because it doesn’t taste like anything. I told myself I was all finished with Magic Hat… well, shame on me. Low Key, indeed.

Bottle. Soapy lemon, biscuit malt, and orange peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with small head. Mildly sweet citrus, biscuit malt, and mildly bitter orange peel/pine flavor. Light body. Not much here - at least there’s nothing unpleasant.
