tap - Pours slightly hazy copper with a small, lingering head. It has a citrus hop aroma. The flavor is of moderate to strong citrus hop bitterness with a sweet, bready, caramel malt backbone. It’s less bitter and tastes less strong than what might expect from an IIPA. It’s closer to some IPAs, in my opinion. Medium bodied. Good beer.

On draught at World Of Beer. Pours a clear orange color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing. The aroma consists of hops and grapefruit. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, herbs and caramel malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Above average overall.

Growler. Orange piney hops and caramel malt aroma, Clear deep gold wit a large off-white head. Caramel malt and extremely smooth resinous piney hops flavor, Full sticky body. Somehow this one manages to be a hop bomb with actually being a hop bomb,

Bottle. Orange and grapefruit peel/pine aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Sweet orange malt and strong grapefruit peel/reisinous hops flavor. Get a crescendo of bitterness after swallowing. Very nice.
