You know, I really like the labels on these dominion beers. Bottle, pours orange tinted with a decent head. Smell is muted IPA but its there. Taste is big fat bitter IPA, what else can be said. Add another one to a ubiquitous style. Terribly bitterly nast-nellie on style. What-evvvah.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 9/23/2015. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy deep orange/copper color with a 2 finger dense and fluffy light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense foamy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon zest, orange peel, light pine, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/tropical hops and moderate bready malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, light caramel, toasted bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Good amount of pine/citrus rind bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon/orange peel, pine, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/tropical/piney hops and moderate bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Moderate amount of dryness from bitterness as well. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately sticky, and slightly creamy/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very good IPA. All around good robustness, complexity, and balance of citrus/tropical/piney hops and moderate bready malt flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink. A very enjoyable offering.

12 ounce bottle. Hazy amber gold color with a decent sized rocky beige head. Fresh pine and citrus hop nose. Tangy toasted malt flavor is nicely balanced by the complex hop bill. The Nelson-Sauvin spiciness and the juicy Citra hops really shine. This is a well craftedcAmerican IPA that is eminently quaffable.
