Windows Up is a single IPA made with Mosaic and Citra hops. It pours a hazy straw color and is topped with bright white beer foam. Piney aromas mingle with fruity notes, while hints of citrus fruit and an overall lingering resinous quality lend a touch of complexity to this dank IPA.

Bottle from Total Wines, Sterling VA. Amber in colour, with a decent, white, head. Plenty of grassy hops, tangerine and grapefruits, a pine hit, and crisp balancing malts, before a dry, hoppy finish. Excellent.

Tap at SBWF. Golden colour, small steady white head. Grainy, fruity, resinous aroma. Medium-bodied. Resin and pine needles on the flavour. West Coast style ... doesnt feel superfresh but ok brew as such.
