Can with an awesome label. Pours a hazy pale orange with a thin head. Flavors are soapy, with a little bread dough, some light citrus and a little bit of a floral something. Flavor is very blah for an IPA. Kind of a floral soapiness and too much malt. As a pale, sure... as an IPA, hell no!

Can. Pours a clear dark brown with a light brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has dark grains and chocolate supported by roasted malts and a hint of smoke. Flavor starts with dark grains and chocolate but has growing roasted malts and a bit of smokiness underlying.

Can. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a dense foam head and aromas of light citrus with a touch of honey. Flavor is a punch of grapefruit rind with a nice balance to the whole thing. It’s kinda watery, but decent enough after a couple other beers that didn’t get finished this evening.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a slight burnt amber color with a cap of a little white foamy head that fell off at a moderate pace. Light stringy lace.
The aroma had some smooth caramel/toffee malts up front with a touch of herbal hop character gently hitting some floral and faint citrusy hops. Some toast and nuts.
The flavor gently guided the malts to the hops - smooth yet semi-sweet with a touch of bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and the finish was fairly smooth.
The palate was between light and medium bodied with a pretty good sessionable quality about it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt as projected.
Overall, almost American amber ale to me with a bit more unexpected citrusy and floral hop bitterness, but hey, it was good and that’s all that mostly matters anyways.
