Tangerine, blood orange. The hops aroma comes on decently then just kind of dies into a tangy mess. Pours clear golden with slightly reddish tint. Ok head. Tap at Midlands.

Ice cold can. I see GL has jumped on the IPA wagon wave, I think they have over 2 dozen out there now. This one pours pretty much clear pale orange but there is a tad of haze on mine. Grapefruit nose with a little bit of pine on the olfactory. First taste is lots of bitter IPA but there is a good level of carbonation, I appreciate the extra co2 in these bitter ass brews, takes my mind off the aggrieved nasty mouth rototiller experience. In the middle, has a sort of begrudging beefy feeling on the taste buds, odd heavy IPA effects. Getting some of that alky relief on the brain as I near the end. Not sure if I would call this brew 'polite' since it is a terribly on style IPA. And the finish? No, its not 'mild mannered' hehehehh; some of these descriptions on beer labels makes me roll while LoL. This is just another of a gahzillion IPA out there that pretty much have the same indignant bitter bastard taste.

12 oz can. Pours golden with a lot of fine particles. Citrusy hop aroma with some pine. Flavor has the piney and citrus hops with some pale malt. A pretty good IPA, if not terribly exciting.

Pours lightly hazy orange gold. This is a solid citrus/tropical ipa. It’s not the most bitter thing out there but it certainly has more than many IPAs in the days of hazies everywhere. Medium bodied.
