Draft pour pint, enjoyed at Valley House, Duvall. Rating from backlog. A somewhat cloudy golden appearance. Plenty of foam head. Juicy orange fruit and citrus nose. Flavor might be a bit overboard with the orange. I get that it is what it is, but it didn't need to be so extreme. Not subtle. Like a vitamin C tablet of orange flavor. Intense orange throughout, though not sweet or chalky. Pell late bitterness. Ultimately unique brew. Might need to cut this in half with another IPA.

On tap at Lucky Envelope, pours an opaque murky yellow, no head — this looks fucking awful. Aroma is basically orange juice, with subdued hops in the back. Flavour is nothing but bitter orange pith — there's bitter orange rind and citrus hops. Not really beer-like—it's fun I guess, but this is ridiculous. Not great.
