Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a golden orange yet fairly clean body with a one finger white foamy head that leaves a fair amount of speckled lacing.
The smell had a a fair amount of hops up front and a decent amount of hops.
The taste was balanced but mostly staying true to an AIPA style, a somewhat malty yet bitter aftertaste, sticky sweet finish.
The palate sat at a light to medium, fairly sessionable, carbonation seems subdued for its style but really just mediocre for the most part.
Overall, this is not a bad AIPA, but nothing spectacular and nothing to quickly come back to.

Bottle. Pours clear amber with a medium creamy off white head, decent lacing. Aroma is pine, urine, sweat socks, old leather, aluminum foil. Flavor is about the same, artificial and not pleasant. Metallic. Buy a Budweiser before drinking this.

12 oz bottle from Sampler Pack from Safeway Salinas. Nose is a little citrus hops mixed with some stale bread. Clear yellow orange with a medium pale yellow head. Flavor is lightly bitter with a light carrot candy sweetness. Not much of an IPA.

Bottle from a Safeway. Pours light amber with a creamy off-white head. Light aromas of fruit and citrus. Med body almost. Flavor is smooth caramel with a decent amount of floral and maybe citrus hop. It’s definitely bitter. Very pleasant. Not extreme or exciting, but I’ve had many that were not so tasty.
