Some lime and a little pineapple. Not bad though not much to this. Good for riverside beer drinking I suppose. Amber pour with ok head. Fairly clean end. Can

Bought at Liquor Shed.

It pours a clear pale gold, plenty of foam, yeah, and lacing.

Smells of grapefruit citrus and pine, floral and fruity. Not much of a malt presence in the smell. Double IPA.

Ahh..there's the malt, in the taste. Sweet but not over the top like some of the style. Hops well represented as in the smell. Low dankness level. Smooth, not overly boozy. Little bit of onion, thankfully not too much.

Medium bodied with lightish carbonation.

Above average for the style. I like it.

Very clear copper and light bronze coloured body with a thin, slightly off-white head. Aroma of fresh grassy and very herbal hops with a big dose of astringency and alcohol noticeable without much malt at all. Light to Medium-bodied; Quite bitter and nutty malt flavours at first with some biscuits, a touch of grain, a lot of herbs and a dose of more PNW deeper hops with an astringency on the end. Aftertaste shows a good balance of malt and hops, but too little of either to make a big dent in anything, but some bitterness, alcohol and punch from the astringent flavours and a touch of citrus on the end as well. Overall, a pretty poor beer overall, and not a good beer in the slightest bit for the style, which is quite sad because I had much higher hopes for this one, but will probably avoid this brewery in the future due to this big miss! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Dominion Wine and Beer in Falls Church, Virginia on 31-January-2018 for US$2,99 sampled at home in Washington on Easter Sunday, 01-April-2018.

Caramel, bread crust aroma. Clear amber, thin head. Honey, bread crust. Medium body, soft carbonation. Tasty, but little hop presence for this style.

Sample at Pint Room Littleton. Hazy amber color with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily to a film. Strings of lacing. Aroma of fruit, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of resiny hops, citrus and grainy malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a short fruity hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
