Draft at Bert's in Millersville. Thick pale pulp juice with soooo much lacing. Actually pretty in its own way. Though empty hop water otherwise. Who likes this?

Sampled on draft at Tapped this beer poured a murky apricot color with a huge soapy orange white head that lingered forever and left good lacing. The aroma was bitter and resinous. The flavor was bitterish, a touch smokey and off. Medium length finish. Medium body. Not good.

Growler from Super BuyRite in North Plainfield, NJ. Fragrant citrus hop nose. Murky yellow color. Tangy, fruity malt flavor hints at OJ. Bready malt middle. Lemon and grassy hops in finish. Lots of tropical fruit hops for a session IPA. Decent.

16 oz can. Nice aroma of grapefruit, spice, fresh grassy hops. Flavor is moderately bitter, grapefruit, herbal, bit of floral hops. The bitterness is moderate. Hop to malt ratio lean’s more hops with accounts for the bitterness
The light body is not watery and that is an accomplishment for the given style. Better than a vast majority of the session IPAs on the market. If a four pack wasn’t so pricey I could drink a lot of this.

At a tasting, thanks, small stable bubbly head, murky pale orange color, juicy aroma of tropical fruits and onions, strong onion flavor with a bit of citrus and wood behind, herbal bitterness, smooth. Nice and highly drinkable.

From tap. Pours murky yellow, small white head. Aroma is peachy and citrusy hoppy. Mild fruity, juicy and mellow. Subdued bitterness. Fruity to slight floral into the finish.

More of these damn session IPA’s (this is where I wanna yell at some kid saying \"Get off my lawn!\" with this style). Lo well.
Fine, okay, so this was poured into a becher pint glass.
The appearance was a hazy burnt amber color with a thin white foamy head. Sly trickling lace.
The aroma had some pine and grassy bitter hops beating at sly portions of a sweet apricot to peach-like sweetness.
The flavor was moderately sweet with a decent blend of malts to hops. Aftertaste was fairly nice with the same sort of ratio; lenient to the malts. Finish was brisk and slightly sweet.
The palate was light bodied with a good sessionability as I know it’s supposed to, duh? Carbonation felt fine. And the ABV felt fine.
Overall, it’s good for what it is as Singlecut wanted it to be. So this is where I say: \"Get off my lawn\" with this style - besides, it’s the time of the year I need to mow! Also, with that in mind, if any of you brewers out there need any freshly cut grass for your \"session IPA’s\" let me know, I’ll send it to you.

Keg at BD Clerkenwell. It pours hazy golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, green, grassy, pine needles, dank, apricot, peach, fruit pie and peach cobbler. The taste is crisp, dry, pine needles, green, grassy, orange peel, creamy, peachy, apricot, light spice and wood with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Good fun.
