Location: Draft at Rock Bottom, Chicago, 6/25/14
Aroma: Nose is light and sweet, melon is present, not big, but present, bready and doughy notes
Appearance: Pours an unclear orange with a lasting white head that leaves plenty of lace
Flavor: This beer has a clean, light hop flavor, it is medium sweet and light-medium bitter
Palate: It has an easy drinking feel, a fairly light body, and it has a tingly, but soft carbonation
Overall Impression: I thought this was okay, but I wanted it to be better. I mean, how great is that name? Anyway, mellon on a session IPA is a heck of an idea. Better execution could really bring this idea to fruition.

Sampler at Rock Bottom Chicago. Very hazy pale gold. Mild lacing. Aroma is mild to moderate. Not as expected, new hop for me. Its a bit dusty, stale maltiness and the hop is a bit flabby. A very mild hoppy, rather neutral maybe a bit melon like. Flavor is a bit husky and heavy, not spry at all. A bit of a tropical rind character. Kind of just a blah beer with nothing directed or interesting. Hops aren’t bright, malts are husky and yeast neutral.
