12oz bottle pours with a pale gold body that has a faint haze and supports a thin white head. The mild aroma offers up Noble hoppy floral and spicy and slightly earthy notes as well as a bit of malt graininess. The taste starts hoppy with moderate levels of floral to herbal to earthy citrus like hop bitterness and flavor. To midway malts come to the surface that are sweet and malty as well as a bit biscuit like and add a nice depth to the hoppiness. Tasty Pale Ale like session brew.

Draft - Dank earthy hops with a pale malt sweetness. Pale gold with a decent beige head. Bright earthy hops and bitterness, light citrus and a clean finish. More like a euro skunky bitter pils.

Picked up a 6 pack at Discount Liquors in Evanston
Pours clear golden with a medium sized white head and some lacing. Aroma of tropical fruit, oranges, bready, cereal and herbal tea. Flavors are mild malts, citrus, grassy, yeast with a vegetal bitterness
This was ok, but falls short of being a good refreshing/summer beer. More of a hoppy lager than IPA.

On tap at the River Room, Whole Foods, Boise. Clear light yellow with a bright white head. Light very pale grain malt aroma a bit of cereal/corn A touch of noble hops. Light malty flavor a bit pilsenerish but w/o the hop bit at the end.

Pours a light, golden yellow, with minimal, frothy white head. Smells and tastes much more like a lager to me than an IPA--very bready, malty, sweet, with minimal hop presence. It’s not bad, just not quite what I was expecting.

Slightly hazy yellow. Thin head. Light herbal, honeyish hop and some basic pale malts. Sulphury, vegetal character. Sweetish pale malts underneath. Good beer.

Lightly hazy gold - soapy lace - nose has some very nice floral and herbal hop notes, but there are also some moderate creamed corn and DMS notes - creamy texture, fairly light body - kind of sweet, with some huskiness, diacetyl, more creamed corn - there are some pleasant hop notes, but the flaws make this very hard to enjoy - I feel like there is a good recipe hiding in here, they just need to work out the fermentation.

12 oz bottle. Aroma consists of latex, citrus powder drink, tropical fruit, dusty basement. Pours clear golden with a big fluffy white head with excellent retention; leaves some funky lacework. Taste starts out sweet before quickly turning bitter; a bit biscuity. Thin bodied and highly carbonated, which is what you want in a session beer--at least I do. Not bad, even with the weird aroma.

Pour is a creamy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a nice floral hop. Flavor is again a nice hop with a grainy dry malt presence. Finish is clean a nice hop resin left on the tongue. Decent summer refresher. More of a hoppy golden ale IMO.

A- it pours a clear straw colour, 1" head of foam with good lacing. Deeper into the session and the foam makes a complete exit.
S- good hoppy aroma, citrus, with more than a solid malty backbone.
T- matches the aroma though the hoppy goodness isn’t as forward. I like the way the malt in this compliments rather than distracts from the overall flavours, but I was hoping for just a bit more assertion...err...oomph.
M- as expected, very light bodied with close to medium carbonation. Goodish mouthfeel until the end of the sip.
Best by 07/31/14 or...31/7/14.
