Hazy gold - amber beer, good pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and dry and a little crisp. Mild minerals. Semi dry pale malt base. Light pine and orange hops. Finishes dry with mildly bitter grass. Comes over as a little disjointed but fine.

Bottle. Pours a thin yellow/amber in color. Thin white head sticks around with some spotty lacing. Aromas of citrus and pine, caramel, and light toast. Flavor is dominated by dry bitterness with some citrus pith and pine. Light bodied and very dry finish.

Tap at Rattle’n’Hum, NYC, 20/05/13. Clear golden amber with a thin off white head. Nose is floral hops, light soap, citrus, touch grapefruit. Taste comprises orange pith, caramel, mineral notes, hops, light grapefruit. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, hop bitterness in the finish/ Ok IPA, drinkable but short of being one I’d likely return to.

12oz bottle courtesy of markwise pours with a slightly hazy copper body that supports a short lived near white head. The aroma offers up diluted orange juice and sweet muted orange hard candy as well as a cotton candy sensation. The taste is similar with thin diluted citrus notes that begins with a dash of malt sweetness and move into bitter grapefruit and under ripe orange to midway. Into the finish it dries some due to the hops getting into a bit of a resiny realm. Pretty nice IPA.

Aroma: Orange, rubbed hop, pot puri, caramel and pine needles.

Appearance: Murky amber body with a small off-white head. Lively carbonation. Light lacing.

Taste: Grapefruit, dried apricot, caramel and toffee. Lightly spiced, dry finish. Quite yeasty too.

Palate: Medium body with an oily texture. Fizzy carbonation.

Overall: A complex, malty IPA with nice grapefruit and apricot hints.
