Draft pour, enjoyed at Duck Foot. A clean and shiny caramel golden pour, thin fizz head. Flavor is a touch rich with a caramel malt up front. A smooth, thicker body to a classic IPA. Aroma is a watered down grain, not much invitation to this brew. Not really picking up any hop profile either. Strange IPA, as it feels watered and having something missing. Slight miss for me.

Can from Bottlecraft, thanks Eddan. A bit hazy orange with a medium white head. Aroma and taste of grain, bread and some caramel. Almost no hops or fruit. An old can?

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear deep gold with a with head that dissipates to the the edges and laces slightly. Aroma combines straw and grain with a good amount of bitter citrus supporting. Flavor has grass and pine with some citrus rind and earthy grains supporting.
