Can - pours a lightly hazy gold - man, how can you fuck up IPA - thin, watery texture - poor attenuation - sugary flavor - rough malt texture - some grapefruit and pine underneath what is mostly a watery, sugary, overly sweet experience - not good.

On tap @ the brewery. A little hazy dark orange appearance with a light brown head. The aroma smells nice. Lots of juicy grapefruit, some tropical fruit like pineapple and papaya, and some hop spice. Medium body. Medium high bitterness and sweetness. A little goopy but not awful. Caramel, toasted malt, light pine, lightly dank, very citrusy flavor. Average ipa.

Sample at the taproom. The beer is a clear bright bronze color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to a film. The aroma consists of herbal hops, fruit and malt. Medium body with flavors of fruity hops, doughy malt and a bit of pine. The finish is mildly bitter with a short citrusy hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
