16 oz. bottle, pours a cloudy opaque orange with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with piney hops, stone fruits galore and biscuity malt. Flavour is just lovely, loaded with piney hops, some stone fruitiness, light pith and biscuity malt. Some sticky resins with a touch of sweetness on the finish. Immensely drinkable and wonderfully constructed. Excellent.

Taster at Loyal Legion. Clear golden body, small foamy head. Light grainy aroma. Taste is more of the grains, bread. Small hoppy bite puts in squarely in pils territory.

Draft pour pint at Hop and Hound. Very thick, almost milky, orange juice pour. Spiraling foam head. Creamy, juicy hops from front to back. A mellow orange cream aroma. The late palate actually has me thinking it's a glass of orange juice I'm enjoying. Long cool finish. So refreshing and delicious. These guys just get it.

Draft 10 oz pour at the Red Hook Brewpub. A midnight red pour, thin film head. Love that Matchless continues to kill it with the hoppy beers, then remains solid with the unique styles as well. Sweet and bold bready malt aroma. Flavor has a good mix of spice, and dark fruit, with song, drawn out toasty finish. A little too sweet for my usual taste. Very flavorful. Good beer.

16 oz can poured. These guys have quickly become one of my favorite local brewers. Them, along with another brewery pretty far north, I feel like would both strive with a Seattle taproom. The IPAs are incredible, and the other beers aren't left behind. What i love most about these Matchless beers is the unique story behind a lot of them. Creative brewing processes, or yeast strains. Just adds to the fun and enjoyment of the beer. This IPA fits in well with their already extraordinary list of stellar hoppy beers. Hazy golden yellow pour. A ton of tropical fruit going on. Pineapple. A creamy, oat like background. A clear pils malt, that works great with this beer. An excellent IPA. Hope this one sticks around in their lineup.

16oz can pours out a hazy straw color topped with a white head. Nose is a nice fruit mix with fresh hops leading the way. Taste is more of the fruit hops and a light sweet malt.

Lightly hazy golden orange with a white foamy head. Light floral, citrus, funk, must notes. Brett exists but is restrained. Medium bodied. Finish has lingering musty and fruity notes. Nice.
