Pours deep, clear amber into a Sam glass. White head with medium retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Sweet candy corn and resin aromas. Medium bodied with sweet toffee and caramel upfront turning to resin in the lasting finish.

Location: Draft at the Charlotte Airport, 4/5/12
Aroma: The aroma has a nice hoppiness, citrus, grass, grapefruit, pine, and a little caramel
Appearance: The pour is a clear orange color, with a small white head and spotty lace
Flavor: The taste is lightly sweet and mid-plus bitter, the components match-up with nose
Palate: The body is medium, with a soft carbonation, a sticky feel, and a decently dry finish
Overall Impression: This seemed to me to be a very solid IPA. Maybe I just needed a half decent beer, and I'm overrating its quality, but I enjoyed this one.

Received in trade from VncentLIFE, thanks for the opportunity. Pours a crystal clear deep golden color with a decent white head that shows moderate retention with a fair amount of sticky lace. Smells of pine and bread with hints of citrus. Smells like an IPA should clean with a bit of dankiness. Taste is a mix of bread and caramel malt offset with some pine and citrus to remind you there are some hops in this one. Medium body with a dry finish, moderate level of carbonation with a slick resinous mouthfeel. Decent IPA, I really enjoyed it, but seems a bit on the mild side of "India" Clean flavorful brew.

Tap at Mellow Mushroom, Charlottesville. Pours an amber, clear, no head. Aroma is bittersweet citrus, tropical fruits, breadiness, and pine. Flavor is quite similar to the smell, with a hint of grain or earthiness to it.

A golden amber IPA with a thin off white head. A pleasant aroma of floral hops, honey, quite restrained. In mouth, a good malt base with nice c-hops, smooth and malty, no astringence, well made. On tap at Great North Carolina Brewers Fest., August 28 2010.
