Enjoyed at gabf 2014. It pours with a nice crystal clear copper body that supports a tan head of foam. The modest aroma offers up a mix of malts and pine hops and just a sliver of sort of fruit citrus hops. The taste has a nice rich mix of malts and pine hops that attain a balance between sweetness and resiny hop bitterness. It stays that way into the finish where a bit more malts well up with a hint of caramel going on. Overall this is still a tasty IPA.
