This mostly clear ipa with a dense lingering, heavily lacing head has an earthy, resinous hops aroma and flavor. It’s pleasantly hop forward and bitter with a solid malt backing. Tasty.

12 oz bottle from Total Wine. Golden pour, light haze, skimpy white head. Aroma is hoopy, light, woody, grassy. taste amps up the hops a bit, offering a nice bitter bite and overall snap. Dry, chalky finish.

I discovered Alien IPA on tap at a cafe in Santa Fe, NM and later bought a 12 oz bottle at Total Wine. It delivers a bright yellow, see-through liquid completed by a touch of white foam. It tastes of citrus, an interesting honey sweetness and has an appreciated hop-forward presence (meaning it is not NE style). Nice effort.
