Draft at Yard House-Springfield. Medium amber pour with soft creamy head. Gentle floral hoppy aroma, more hoppiness in taste. Pretty smooth throughout, except for a funky metallic finish.

Bottle. Pours a clear Amber with a large head. Smells of sweet citrus, pine, and a bit floral. Taste is a bittersweet medley of orange, grapefruit, pine, green vegetation, and candied sugar. This in yummy. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle with friends. Pours a golden orange appearance with a tan head. Butterscotch, honey, lemon aroma. Decent body. Kind of sweet flavor with some diacetyl, caramel, and honey. Not very good.

Location: 12 oz bottle at Max's on Broad, 5/3/14
Aroma: The aroma is citrus and tropical fruit, some pine hops, and bread/biscuit malts
Appearance: It pours a cloudy orange color with an off-white head and average lace
Flavor: Similar flavor component-wise, with a light sweetness and a medium bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a smooth mouthfeel, and a clean, dry finish
Overall Impression: I thought this one was a pretty solid IPA. I liked the way the components here all worked, and I thought it hit on the components of the style pretty well.
