12 ounce can from McGilligan's 19th Hole in Galloway, NJ. Hazy amber orange color. Small creamy beige head. Fragrant pine hop nose. Light toasted malt flavor upfront. Some citrusy fruit notes in middle. More pine notes in the dry spicy finish. Average IPA with an interesting can design.

Draft at Shepherd and Knucklehead, Hoboken, 4/20/17. Melon (leaning honeydew) is the most prominent thing on the aroma, grapefruit, some pine, and a little grass. After a minute or two that melon thing completely goes away, but the rest of the aroma remains. Pours a nice caramel-orange color with a frothy beige head and some drippy / spotty lace. Fairly strong bitterness level for a 2017 IPA. Drinks clean, crisp, and nicely dry. Not perfect, but quite good, and I enjoyed drinking it.
