Bottle from The Convenient Grocer Hazy light gold in color with a huge frothy white head that persists. Earthy citrus tropical and pine nose and flavor. Just enough bready malt to keep this sane. Someone finally remembered that IPA's were supposed to be bitter. Pretty damn good beer!

Taster pour at Powder Keg Beer & Chili Festival. Appearance is deeply hazy watered down highlighter yellow with no sparkle and thin cap of white head. Aroma is mild citrus and grass. Taste is very mild fruit that's neither terribly sweet nor bitter with a biscuity malt presence. dry bitterness. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft carbonation and crisp finish as taste with lingering dry bitterness. Overall, look and feel are about right but I think in trying to thread the needle between NEIPA and West Coast it lost the strongest elements of both and is kind of bland.
