On tap Growler Guys in Richland. Hazy yellow pour with a thick white head. Heavy aroma of herbal and floral hops, piney and green. Given the name it’s no surprise that its filled with deep dank hoppy flavors. Earthy and herbal, a light enticing sweetness.

Pint can from the brewery. Pours a deep golden color with a frothy white head. Herbal and earthy hop aroma along with a citrus sweetness. Loving the deep hop flavors and balanced bitterness. Sweet citrus and pine with a light dry earthy feel. Crisp. A solid West Coast IPA.

Can from the brewery.. “A flagship IPA in a time where flagships are a dying breed.” So very true. Pours West Coast Gold with a thin white head. Nice aroma of fresh hops, citrusy sweet and a little pine. Tastes lightly sweet with modest bitterness. Good hop flavors, Citra and Mosaic. Clean and refreshing.

On tap at Aslan Depot, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma is pretty dank in the hop department, with lots of weedy hops dominating. Flavour is much the same, with intense weedy, dank hops upfront, backed by lots of sweet malt that I didn't expect. In fact, the sweetness seems overly pronounced, especially for that dankness. Good, but overmalted.

From Beer Drop. 069 on the bottom of the can. What?

It pours a straw yellow, slightly hazy, good long lasting head of foam.

Smells of wheat and grapefruit citrus.

Wheat and grapefruit citrus dominate the taste. Hints of lemon zest, also orange zest. Smooth flavours overall and a good mouthfeel.

Interesting beer and it has good quaffability.

From Beer Drop. 085 on the bottom of the can. What ever that means.

Pours a hazy pale gold, with a fine layer of foam after things settle down.

Smells hoppy in a dank way. Suggestion of onions but only lightly. No,the more I sniff, the more I smell it.

Taste is very dank, hoppy, medium bitterness, not much of a malt presence. Not my cup of tea, I got it because it is a wet hop.

Good mouthfeel, an okay beer.

Draft pour pint enjoyed at Hop and Hound annual Fresh Hop event. A surprising collab here, and I'm all about it. Juicy orange haze, patchy foam head. Ridiculously smooth taste here. Tropical fruit punch nose. Flavor has all sorts of hop character, ranging from ripe tropical fruit, stone fruits, citrus, and pine. Complex and layered. Smooth and flavorful. Cool and refreshing. Low bitter, fruit heavy linger. Why can't hazy IPA be like this all year round. Absolutely incredible beer.
