Cask gravity at GBBF 2015 day 1. Light golden yellow coloured pour with a lasting fine white head. Aroma is tangy lemon citrus, pine and background tropical fruit, light grainy malts. Flavour is good balance between light caramel, grainy base Malts, grassy and pine needle hop. Pretty classic APA. IPA. Palate is medium bodied, little chewy, lingering spicy pine needle.

Poured from bottle slightly hazy copper gold color with a thin white head. Aromas of citrus pine and mild dankness. Similar mild citrus taste with a predominant herbalness. --- Beer merged from original tick of Route 101 IPA on 12 Jul 2015 at 17:05 - Score: 6

Bottle at home in CT - picked up at Julio’s. Pours clear, bright gold with a frothy white head. The aroma is fairly restrained, with subtle notes of dried citrus fruits and pine needles. Light-medium sweet flavor with dry pale malts, flaky pine, lemon rind, hay. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes with moderate grassy, piney bitterness, baked pale malts, more dry and rindy citrus. Drinkable enough but there’s just not much to this beer.

12 oz. bottle, slightly hazy gold with decent amount of suds. The aroma is a hearty amount of citrus fruits. Mango, grapefruit and hints of pine.

Flavor starts with the juicy fruits, tangerine, citrus pith supported by plenty of bread and caramel malts. The finish shows a hint of pine however, still mostly juicy. Bitterness lingers for a good while after the swallow. This is well above average and anybody local should try this. I will be grabbing another six pack. Delightful.

Pours deep gold into a shaker. White head with excellent retention recedes leaving sheet lacing. Tropical fruit and resin aromas. Dry with rapefruit upfront turning to caramel in the middle before going back to grapefruit pith for the lasting finish.
