Hazy but dull light tan. Not much head. Slight apricot nose. Some heft in the body, dash of alcohol in the finish. Got some apricot plopped over top but it’s not well-integrated. Moderate bitterness. None of the elements, individually, are bad. It’s just not that cohesive.

On tap at Callister, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of apricot upfront, along with resinous and piney hops. Flavour is super fruity, with tons of citric apricots, pungent citrusy hops and no real malt body to back. There is even some tartness from the fruit. Astringent and harshly citric, but it somehow works reasonably well. I like the incorporation of apricot into a IIPA.

This is the first glass being poured, so I expect a cloudier and maybe young beer.
The color is dark yellow, cloudy, with almost no head; higher score because I like blond IIPAs. Mild aroma of citrusy hops. The body is lean, very light residual sweetness; I’m not getting much from the malts; strong bitterness without being excessive, but all I get from the hops is a lot of bitter orange juice.
Good beer, kinda messy, but I will try it again in a week to see if it stabilizes.

On tap at Callister, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of resinous hops, candy sweet caramel and light tropical fruitiness. Flavour is piney and sweet, with lots of piney hops, moderate tropical fruits, and quite a bit of residual sweetness. A bit sweet but it's well-constructed overall. Nice one.

Cloudy and flat-looking. Light fruit, not pulling much brightness. This isn’t really composed.

Cloudy blond color. Nice fruity aroma, mango, apricot jam. The malts are light, which is good, but rather unremarkable; low bitterness level, unfortunately more juiciness is expected from these beer; luckily it’s not a chewy, chalky typical NE IPA, it’s rather clean.
Ok beer.

Clean blond color. The aroma has light citrusy hops, the flavor has light crackery malts, the mouthfeel is dry, the bitterness is strong, with quite evident hop resins.
Clean APA. But very ordinary.
