Our hazy citrus IPA balances citrusy hops, and tangerine to create a crushable fruited hazy.

Can from Total Wine in Vacaville, CA. Pours orange tinge gold with a moderate white head. Aroma seems to be blood orange. Medium body. A bit juicy, sweet, but bitter enough for balance. Flavor does seem to be blood orange. Fairly tasty.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: murky orange to brown color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace, light messy lace on the glass
Aroma: lots of sweet citrusy tones, some orange pulp-like vibe, light grassy tones and a bit of a stiff malt
Flavor: more bitter than bittersweet, but tries to bring in more of a balanced "bittersweet" tone to it, to me that never truly happens; light aftertaste of citrusy hops and malts
Texture: light to medium bodied, some sessionability to this; finishes malty and semi-citrusy
Overall: in a world full of IPA's, I'm not exactly sure how much I really want to have this again, maybe if someone handed me a can

On Tap Clear deep golden pour with a thick dense off-white head. A little light toasted malts, mild smooth subtle clean malts. i suppose a touch of the claimed tangerine. Lacking much hop character. Not sure I would call it "Ferocious"

Keg at Drink Valley, Swindon. Alarmingly neon orange, a little hazy. Malty aroma, some orange pulp. Lovely. The taste is certainly malted with a big vanilla sugar note. Some big sweetened tangerine and mango pulp before a short finish. Heavy carbonation. A decent malt-led IPA.

From tap at Hopworks Urban Brewery, Portland. Big citrus kick in the aroma with orange juice, tropical fruits, grapefruit, light pale malt, zesty citrus peel and juicy fruits. Flavour is light sweet with a firm bitter finish. Body is medium. Lovely citrus IPA, tons of juicy fruits, right up my alley.

Wouldn't call it hop crazy. Orange body with thick white head. Blood orange aroma. Flavour comes off as rather bland, not very much of anything at all. Good hop finish.
