Orange peel, peanut hull nose, not strong. Clear tea colored, medium cream colored head. Quite metallic, pecan, and cardboard flavor, subtle juniper berry accents. Light body. Pretty disappointing, especially since age is not a factor for this seasonal beer sampled in season.

1$ can at JR's clearance rack. Quite brite IPA hops citrus nose. Nearly clear pale with a big head that stays. Citrusy up front on the taste, not much real IPA here. Yea, its hoppy bitter fer sure but not most IPA. More like a stronger APA if you ask me; and I like that. Could use a little more carbonation to make it less boring. In the middle, I'm glad it somewhat has an alky kick to make this IPA session more livable. Yes, I think we just have a spritely APA here. I don't think most manly IPA lovers will appreciate this brew. On the finish, its a little more behaved than most domestic IPA fer sher.

Can, 1$ off JR's clearance rack. Slight haze on a light orange tint pale gold beer. Nose of medium fresh green sticky pine spruce cones. First taste is somewhat fruity but that immediately disappears and a big hop bitterness continues to build. Not as mouth coating or viscous as expected, but it could use a little more co2. A mild warming sensation develops in the middle on the palate and down the throat. Boozy. Fruited tastes remain at the commencement of each swig. At least this makes it a little interesting compared to the diesel flavored impy IPAs I've done in the past. Yes, tho I don't care much for this or most any IPA, the fruity thing that hits the taste buds with each swig, combined with its mind numbing alky content, at least makes it worth while for beer rating tick. However, I would not buy it again; just saying, its more acceptable to most other domestic impy IPA. Almost comes across like a regular IPA.
