A Totally Nebular IPA. Great Western premium two-row, combined with c-15 and Dextri-Pils, give this beer a bright and galactic Milky Way hue. The hopping is pure starglow energy, with Chinook to bitter and late and dry additions of Citra and Amarillo.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a hazy golden with a medium white head. Aroma of piney hops, a little resin, a hint of fruitiness and some sweetened cereal malt. Flavour brings out loads of piney hops, resin, some light fruit and soft caramel malt to back. Wonderful body which remains highly drinkable. Dry, piney body, with a piney and grassy finish. Excellent IPA.

Tap at Elysian, Seattle, 27/05/13. Clear golden with a thin white head that dissipates edgeward. Nose is hops, citrus, grapefruit, orange. Taste comprises hops, pine, bitter grapefruit, orange pith, trace of caramel malts, tangy tropicals. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, hop bitterness in the finish but well tempered and easy drinking. Decent IPA.

On tap. Pours a tawny color with little head. Aromas of citrus and brown sugar. Flavours of oranges, light bitter grapefruit and light toasted malts. Nice but a bit watery and lighter body than I expected for the series.

Small sturdy head on top of a foggy orange-gold body. Huge hoppy citrus on the nose - grapefruit, orange, pomegranate. Flavour is plenty of orange sweetness with a dry hop finish and lip-scrunching bitterness. An amazing IPA.

Sample at GABF 10/13/2012, thanks to Bluemeow76 for assistance with note-taking. Hazy amber-gold color with a medium off-white head and spotty lacing. Aroma of grapefruit, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of grassy hops, orange rind and bready malt. The finish is short with a mildly bitter hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
