Can to tulip.
Appearance: golden yellow to semi-orange/copper color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: citrusy, piney and floral hoppiness; some clean malts
Flavor: moderately blends the prior noted aromas bittersweetly; subtle aftertaste of the malts and piney hops
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; some smoothness but also some hop clingy-ness on the tongue; finishes citrusy hoppy and malty
Overall: nice enough TIPA that I could return to.

Can. Unclear golden body with a disappearing white head. Strong aroma with lots of citric fruit, some grapefruit, pine and malt. Flavor is sweet, but not sticky malt, lots of fruit like aroma, peach, grapefruit and good bitterness. The high alcohol is quite hidden. Fine body and long lasting fruity bitterness. Nice one.

The Aromas are a nice blend of resin and citrus hops with pale malt and fresh lumber. Flavors are like nose medium bitterness good carbonation and body, some sweet to balance. Good beer.

Solid powerful hop juice. Balanced and tasty. No sticky alcohol coming up either. Dangerously easy drinkable. Nice hazy yellow color with a fine head. Good lacing. Nice hoppy aroma with a fine intensity. Grapefruit hoppy, pine, herbal and tropical flavor.
