Draft - Sweet citrus and grapefruit, with a sweet malt backbone. Cloudy orange with a good white head. Sweet grapefruit and an upfront bitterness that lingers like pith. Floral and a long finish.

Can. Pours a hazy amber with a floral hop filled aroma. Hop lover beer for sure. A little bit of sweet fruit in there too. Finishes really smooth and full of flavor. Easy drinking. Very well done.

Bottle from Fred Meyer, Ballard, Seattle
Hazy amber color with medium head. The aroma is very nice, there are resiny hops, delicate biscuity malt and a touch of fruity hops. Lean body, with rather dry mouthfeel; the malt flavor has a very pleasant caramel and toffee accent; correct bitterness with a good amount of hop qualities, some citrusy resins included.
Very well balanced, yet with character, and easy to drink; excellent IPA.

Draught at The Beer Junction, Seattle
Hazy blond color with creamy head. Very nice fruity aroma, plums, tangerines, grapes and an impression of tropical fruits. Dry mouthfeel; lean malt flavor with a light toffee touch; strong bitterness, the hops are more fruity than resiny.
This is my horse tonight.

12 oz can pour. Brownish yellow color. Malt forward with a light bready aroma. A little malty up front with a wet, sweet finish. Not a whole lot of flavor, but very drinkable for sure. Overall, it?s alright.
