Not much here. A low aroma and low flavor, light IPA. IT is drinkable and Ok but just not much here at all to enjoy.

Bottle shared by JK, thanks! Pours a clear yellow gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has earthy grass and light pine with some citrus rind and light grains backing. Flavor has dry grass and light pine with some sweet grains and a touch of citrus rind coming through.

Bottle from mix pack. Pours a crustal clear golden color with a small white head that has good retention. The aroma is medium in strength with grapefruit, lemons and some guava. The taste is more grapefruit, grass and some pine. The palate is full and crisp with soft carbonation. Finishes short and dry with lingering pine resins. Overall: decent, really nice take on the IPA--I can almost taste the cold.

Tangerine, pine, biscuit malt, and grapefruit peel aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Moderately sweet tangerine, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter grapefruit peel and pine flavor. Good body.

Not bad for a Sam IPA, with a gentle grapefruit-tropical hop punch and some lingering fruitiness from the yeast. Hint of pine in the fade. Nothing memorable.
