Ascend through dense pockets of high-altitude, floral hoppiness before reveling in an immersive malt body with a bitter yet balanced finish.

Pours reddish orange with a medium sticky head. Aroma has notes of pine, citrus and hops. Taste is fruity with notes of pine and grass. Bitter, hoppy finish. Enjoyable, well balanced IPA.

Received in trade from depechemode1983, thanks for the opportunity! Pours a slightly chill hazed deep copper color with a two finger white head that drops quickly to form a cap on top. Smells nicely of apricot, citrus, and pine with a faint bready caramel malt hidden deep underneath. Taste is sweet malt with plenty of citrus and pine bitterness to keep the sweetness in check. Long lingering pine bitterness in a slightly sweet finish. Crisply carbonated, medium body with a sticky resinous mouthfeel. Great IPA that I wish I could get more often. I like a sweet malt backbone and not just bracingly bitter hops, this definitely fits the bill for my taste buds.

12oz bottle pours a transparent, copper amber with a creamy, frothy, lacing white head. Aromas of cookie dough, malts, crackers, just a little orange. The nose is mild. For 80 IBUs this is an easy drinker. Malty, lightly metallic, orange, pine needles, caramel, some grapefruit. Medium bodied, lightly slick with a bitter finish. Super drinkable and well balanced.

Shipped to me by my wife on a trip to Portland this beer poured a hazy orange-caramel color with a huge fluffy orange-beige head that lingered and produced great lacing. The aroma was sour and tangy with notes of caramel, light pine and a bit of pineapple. The flavor was bitter with moderate notes of caramel, nut, pine and grapefruit. The finish was medium length bitter and hoppy. Medium body. Ok.
