Can, from total wine in Cary. Pour is slight haze on pale almost orange eye. Nose is crisp clean pine needles. Initially, taste is nearly IPA but ain't. Some pine flavored hops in there. Does not rise to the level of IPA but it almost gits thar. Has a decent level of co2 fer sure, really levels out the attempt of an IPA. Now, in the mile, it starts to feel like an IPA, hop bitterness begins to settle in. Not sure if I would call this crisp and refreshing but it in the end it does turn out to be a decent ale, not much rude ass IPA shit going on here, even tho its constantly trying to be one. There, you have it.

T: Bitter lemon and orange citrus and piney hops with woody malt notes and a tart piney ending. M: Sharp carbonation accents the bitterness. Medium light body and resinous feel.
