Right Meow is always the best time for a beer. This is a more even keeled IPA designed for sustainable day-long crushing. Hopped for a more citrus leaning, resinous flavor with a slightly dank, chronic funk aroma.

Sample at HopCat Grand Rapids. This beer is a slightly cloudy yellow-orange color with a medium white head that diminishes steadily to an outer ring. Strings of lacing. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of grapefruit, hops and biscuit malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Decent overall.

Purchased at Siciliano’s Market in Grand Rapids, MI; enjoyed on a fantastic late summer / early fall evening before going to a show. Appearance is cloudy gold with a rich white head. Aroma is hoppy. Taste is hoppy. This is an IPA that does the trick and there’s nothing really that stands out. It’s good.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours hazy/cloudy orange/amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky off white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, papaya, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, honey, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, papaya, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, honey, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus rind bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon/orange rind, pine, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance initially; leading to some light lingering hop astringency near the end of the glass. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness; increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately sticky/resinous, and fairly creamy/bready balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Minimal warming alcohol as expected of 6.3%. Overall this is a very nice IPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink. My only real complaint was the hop astringency that shows up at the end of the glass, but it isn’t overwhelming. A very enjoyable offering.

Sampled from the tap at brew Detroit. Pours a clear yellow with a touch of gold and white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has lots of pine with a light resin and a bread backbone. Flavor has lots of pine with a light resin note and a bit of sweet grains.
