This mammoth IPA is defined by generous quantities of juicy American hops. The extensive dry hopping process contributes to its bright and flavorful character. This beer is unfiltered to leave all the natural flavors intact and bottle conditioned to stay super fresh.

Can. Pours clear orange with a large beige creamy head, puffy and slow to dissipate leaving nice lacing in its wake. Aroma is citrus, pine, floral, dank. Flavor is light sweet, light plus bitter, piney. A bit metallic, not the greatest. Medium body.

Citrus on head with light perfume. Well balance, session like IPA. Pours orange with decent head and lacing. Medium bitter finish. Tap at Churchkey.

Draft - Mild grapefruit and a bit of malt. Clear copper with a thin head. Light citrus with a nice balanced pithy hop. A decent IPA, but nothing special.

Rcvd in trade. Reviewed from notes.
The appearance has a hazy orange/amber colored body with a one finger white head that dies fairly quick, clingy lacing is left in rings.
The smell has citrus, pine and floral tones combined and are up front, ever so light malt in the background, the smell stays that way all throughout the brew.
The taste is bittersweet through the previously mentioned flavors and combined thoroughly.
The palate is about a light to medium. Carbonation is felt just right, very sessionable, dry bitter aftertaste and finish.
Overall, this is a very good American IPA that I would definitely come back to as it is simple and didn’t change throughout.

Golden in the glass, Noce floral in the nose. The beer starts great grassy, intense floral with a not too sweet body. This nice aroma continues and fits in the whole very well. The aftertaste has hints of pine, a bit viscous, nicely bitter, very floral, not too sweet.
A very nice IPA! --> 14/13/14/13

Draft at ChurchKey. Pours an amber/golden orange color with about a finger of off-white head. Aromas of pine/resin, citrus, dankness. Tastes of pine/resin, grapefruit citrus, piney hops, floral notes. Medium body with a nice juicy mouthfeel. Very nice and well balanced IPA!
