Clear golden coloured body with a peach tint and a nice, two centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of fresh grassy and herbal hops with a bit of citrus and grapefruits. Light-bodied; Lightly grassy and earthy flavours with a bit of grain and assertive specialty grain flavour with some lighter sweetness coming from honey and citrus fruits that finishes with quite a bit of bitterness from the hops. Aftertaste is well-balanced with a slightly hoppier than expected flavour full of grass and bitter grapefruits and ends nicely with a good malt kick, some citrus and only a touch of the alcohol around. Overall, a nice and welcoming IPA with some good flavours and a moderate complexity to finish it off nicely. Good to sample if you can grab it as it borders a Light IPA and a real IPA, but executed fairly nicely, especially for the East Coast. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from GrapeVine in Fort Mill, South Carolina on 21-August-2017 for US$1,89 after watching the Eclipse, sampled at home in Washington on 13-October-2017.

Draft at Beltway Brewing Company. Poured a nice orange color with a small off-white head, plenty of lacing. Aroma was light biscuit, plenty of sweet malts, some earthy hops. Flavor was pleasant chewy hops notes. Very drinkable.
