Cellar draught, 9/28/23. Heavily hazy, orange juice. Small, white head quickly to ring. Mega juice in the nose with telltale cran-spruce of that bastard Galaxy. Man, I hate this hop now. Yeah, that bastard hop has ruined it. So much spruce tip and cranberry. The lovely, juicy Citra can't quite mitigate. And the delicate Nelson gets pushed aside. Otherwise this is an almost technically flawless IPA. Juicy, dry, malty, mineralesque and with only spruce-cranberry bringing it down.

On tap at SP brewery. Pours a cloudy yellow with medium white head that lasts. The aroma is dank and citrus. Medium body, grapefruit, grass, melon, nice bitterness, very good.
