Tap at Cap Hop. Pours bright medium/dark gold with a white head. Aroma is nice, but the hop character is hard for me to pin down. Seems very mixed citrus. Med body at least. Malt is very lightly roasty. Somewhat juicily undry. Bitter. It is a very pleasing flavor package. Maybe a subdued and fruity West Coast IPA. Tasty.

Poured from a 32 oz crowler filled yesterday. Aroma is that of a classic west coast IPA. Lots of grapefruit, tangerine, pine and resin. Medium light cracker malt notes with hints of biscuit and light caramel. Pours a fairly clear, bright gold with a large, thick, pillowy, white head that exhibits nice retention as it slowly but steadily recedes to a thin film on the edges. Moderate lacing and faint legs. Flavor has a light sweetness and a fairly dry finish. Medium light cracker malt notes with hints of biscuit and caramel. Fairly strong to strong bitterness and a hint of alcohol spice. Lots of grapefruit, lemon, tangerine and pine hop notes. Lingering resin and bitterness in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice classic ipat. Good hop flavors and aromas but with a balanced hop profile and a fairly assertive bitterness.
