Can: Tea nose with floral accents, not strong. Cloudy orange, thin yellow head. Flavor is decidedly stronger, somewhat intense for a standard IPA. Orange peel and lillies are prominent on the front end. Lemon zest and light malt on the finish. Not very unique by quality but good intensity. Level of bitterness is just right. Fundamentally sound IPA. It’s good to see an up and coming brewery master the basics before experimenting with nonsense. I admire that.

16oz can. Murky, unfiltered, glowing orange-tan color. Big, frothy off-white head. A pretty respectable IPA, lots of citrus hop bitterness, some flowery earthy tones. Toasty, chewy malt backbone. Clean and fresh, above par for your typical American IPA. Not overbearing, but still rich and full-bodied. Quite nice.

16oz can pours a hazy, burnt orange with a creamy, lacing white head. Aromas of citrus fruit, earthy, a little dried orange, grassy, floral. Flavor is sweet, malty, flowers, oranges, some dried citrus peel, green leaves, a little pine. Medium bodied, bitter finish. While not remarkable, very drinkable.

This brew pours a clear orange-amber color with a thick and foamy off-white head that burns away slowly. Partial sheet of lacing on the glass. Aroma of toasted malt and hops. Medium body with a moderately bitter hops profile with notes of bready malt, caramel and citrus. The finish is hoppy with a citrus aftertaste. Above average overall.

On tap at TapWerks OKC. Pours a clear copper with a medium white frothy head with good sticky lacing. The aroma is a sweet hop and floral. Thin mouthfeel with a citrus hops and clean finish. Easy to drink, a very good IPA from Tallgrass.

Black Hills Beer Fest - Clear copper pour with a small sandy head. Mildly sweet nose with citrus and malt. Easy going IPA flavor is mostly a soft citrus and floral bitterness balanced out by caramel malts. Sessionable.

Bottle. Pours a murky and dirty orange with very little head. Aromas have a lot of grain dust with just a hint of herbal/medicinal hops at first, but they intensify a bit late in the \"sniff.\" Flavor is heavily grainy... like a load of silo dust with some English style hops that start to balance things out a bit, but this falls far short of what an American would expect from an IPA brewed on this side of the Atlantic. The malt sits heavily and the medicinal flavoring from the hops doesn’t really punch very much as it heads into the aftertaste.

Can from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours hazy amber with a creamy/foamy off-white head. Rather floral aroma. Full body/creamy carb. Flavor is lots of floral hop over caramel. Much more like an Imperial ESB to me. Good brew.

16 ounce can courtesy of phaleslu. Thanks Peter! Pours a clear amber color with a large offwhite head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of citrus hops with a faint resiny bite and caramel/toffeeish malts. The taste is big citrus hops with a nice toffeeish malt presence. Bitter finish. Well balanced. Very nice IPA.
