On tap at Urban Roots, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of dank hops, piney hops, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is dank and piney, with intense piney hops, light dank, and crisp biscuity malt. Dank, piney and crisp. Excellent.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated November 7, 2019. Aroma is rather hop forward with lots of grapefruit, orange, berry and dank resin notes. Light cracker malt notes with a hint of caramel and faint alcohol notes. Pours a somewhat clear, golden orange with a medium large, thick, frothy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers on the edges. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with a slightly dry finish and moderate cracker malt notes with a touch of caramel. Fairly high bitterness and a touch of alcohol spice. Moderately strong hop notes of grapefruit, orange, pine, resin, berry and dank notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice West Coast IPA. Solid hop notes with a good amount of malt character. Bitter, but not overly aggressive.

Crowler from the brewpub. Pours translucent gold with a foamy white head. Aroma is citrus, but there seems to be a touch of green melon. Lots of hop. Med + body. Fairly dry. Very hoppy - at least near dank. Pretty bitter. Flavor is citrus/evergreen/melon or something like that. Somewhat earthy. Just enough malt for support. Good stuff.
