Heaps of Enigma and Ekuanot hops in the whirlpool along with additions of Enigma power, Idaho 7, and Amarillo hops across the dry-hopping process. Expect boisterous amounts of peach black tea, bright citrus, and orange marmalade on the nose while hints of ripe melon, freshly picked red berries, and white wine grape nuances slip across your palate.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy orange-gold with yeast particles in suspension and a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, tangerine, orange, white grape, peach, earthy yeast and piney hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, white grapefruit, white wine, apricot, lemon rind, earthy yeast and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Looks like Gene picked a good one.

Poured from 473mL can. Lightly cloudy dull yellow gold with small white head. Melon hops, mild dankness, touch of resin, has a bit of dry-ness to it. Decent.

473mL can, pours a cloudy dull peachy yellow with a medium white head. Nose is quite dry, with earthy hops, melon, a touch of white wine tang, and bready malt. Flavour is a little crunchy, but there's some nice bright melon-y hops, a touch of white wine, dry earthiness, and bready malt. A bit too crunchy and muffled, but there's some tangy and melon-y hop character in the back. Good, but still too muffled as so many hazies are.

Weak yellow body, no foam. Aroma is weak dank hops of no distinction, a little wet and muddled. Taste is weak hoppiness, a bit of lemon, any hop character is subdued. Finishes chalky and watery. This is a weak IPA.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy to murky blond colour. Mild aroma of juicy hops, with some tropical and citrus accent, very light dankness Smooth mouthfeel, not too dry, with a good malt base, the hopping is bold, balanced bitterness, some juice, some resin, bitter orange peel. Kind of between coasts IPA. Very good.

Hazy and orangey. Medium head. Hop aroma is big and bright, lots of peach, pineapple, and tangerine. Decent bitterness, and mellow pale malt that lets the bitterness come through. Citrusy hops, light tropical accents. This is good stuff.

Hazy gold with a small white head. Nice fruity citrus notes. Citrus peel and a nice juicy citrus. Balanced bitterness in the finish. Solid.
