12oz bottle. Completely disturbing amount of floaties. A pretty regular IPA in terms of taste. Assumably quite faded, but not undrinkable yet. I guess the orange juice helps. Mediocre stuff.

On draught at Woodlands Tavern during the "Short's On The Road" event on 11/07/2017. Hazy golden color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Tropical fruit, mild hops and malt in the nose. Light to medium body with flavors of citrus, herbal hops and malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a citrusy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 9/8/2017. Pours moderately hazy/murky/cloudy golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, lime, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops, orange juice, and moderate bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of big tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, lime, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very mild pine, citrus peel, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice, grapefruit, lemon, lime, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, citrus peel/rind, light pepper/pine, wheat, biscuit, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops, orange juice, and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, and lightly sticky/resinous balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.6%. Overall this is a nice hazy IPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical/earthy hops, orange juice, and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the mildly bitter finish. This could have been executed better. It has a nice hop profile, but everything seems a bit muddled overall. Not very juicy, vibrant, or dank on hops/juice; but a bit of each. Balanced malts, never overly sweet. A nicely enjoyable offering.
