From tap at As Is NYC. Fruity hops with orange, malt, grapefruit, pine resin. Flavour is moderate sweet with an above medium bitter finish. Bit sweetish, fruity and piney hops. Enjoyable.

Draught at Barber and Brew: pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma is some citrus and mellow fruitiness. Taste is perfumey fruitiness. Not bitter at all. Pretty good.

Draught @ Salty Pig, Boston, MA. Sweet, sticky and tropical fruity with some citrus, pine and grass. Decent, bit too sweet and unbalanced.

On draught at Ale Arsenal in San Carlos. Pours a crystal clear gold with moderate white head that sustains throughout. Hops are faint against the malt bill, without anything standing out.

16 ounce can. Honey gold color. Large rocky beige head. Citrusy hop nose hints at apricots. First sip brings notes of lime, grapefruit and alcohol. Middle brings notes of pepper and lemon. Finish is dry and spicy.

Crisp golden and peach coloured body with a large just off-white head. Aroma of grass, citrus, honeysuckle, a touch of flowers and a dry herbal malty note, coupled with a very light sweetness. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and herbal flavours at first with a big perfumey bite showing a touch of hay and more of the citrusey and lemony flavours that you'd expect from most IPAs, but also showing a smooth balance throughout. Aftertaste is balanced, dry and citrusey showing the subdued herbal and perfumey characteristics and a smooth sweetness towards the end from some fruit and even perhaps some curacao notes. Overall, a pretty nice IPA that is super fresh and tastes it with all the hop notes evident throughout, especially from the perfumey and dry grassy side of things. I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in New York (Bryant Park), New York on 30-November-2018 for US$4,99 sampled on the streets of New York at Christmas-time, just a few minutes later on 30-November-2018

Can. Pours a clear straw yellow gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has a lot of grass with some light pine, citrus rind and grains underlying. Flavor has a really nice dank citrus with light onion and a bit of sweet grains backing.
