Pint on tap at the brewery. It's an opaque, milky dark yellow with finger-width off-white head with decent retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong initial peach which then turned dank vegetal/herbal mix. Taste is strong stone and tropical fruit with late dank vegetal/herbal as aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, super juicy start but I didn't love the transition to dank vegetal/herbal.

Pint on tap at the brewery. It's an opaque black with finger-width beige head with excellent retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong, slightly bitter coffee with hint of maple syrup (when looking for it). Taste mirrors aroma. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thick texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, exceptional strength of aroma and flavor for 4.9% ABV.

4 oz draft. Typical appearance. Flavor upfront is citrus with pine and hints of herb underneath some mild malt. Old school feel to this IPA. Leans on the West Coast without a doubt.

4 oz draft. Nice color. Cherry upfront with a tart blueberry finish. Soft pucker and a mild lingering sour finish. Decent pucker factor.

Draft at the source. Bright gold color with just a touch of haze and a thin bubbly white head. Citrus and spice with bits of bready maltiness and earthy pine hops.

Draft at the source. Hazy orange with a tint of pink and a head that was gone before I got the glass in my hand. Lots of fruit lightly tart if were I hint sweeter it would be sweet and sour sauce. Tasty.

Draft at the source. Hazy lemon yellow with a hint of orange and a small white head that dissipates quickly. Earthy citrus and pine with a hint of bready malt for balance. Not bad for a session.

16 oz can. Aroma has raspberry and cranberry with a mild lactic acid. Flavor is sweeter then I would have guessed. Bold amount of raspberry with cranberry tartness. Very easy drinking not very sour or tart. Balanced.

Can (10/29/21) pour shared by AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's a hazy orange-pink with no discernible sparkle, ring of off-white head and no lacing. Aroma is strong raspberry over cranberry. Taste is strong sweet raspberry over cranberry tart with wheat backbone. Mouthfeel is light side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth, thin, slightly watery texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, not the most complex thing but they absolutely nail what they are going for. Well balanced sweet and tart. Well done!
