Can thanks to Rob. Pours a cloudy yellow with small white head leaving spotty lacing. The aroma is earth and resin. Slick body, dank, grapefruit, lingering resin finish, very good.

Taster at Standard Market. Bit of a sweet, but brett-y smell. Pale Pilsener color as claimed. This is a style that can be hard to get excited about when done straight up. It is a solid pale Belgian, though. Bit of tart and yeast comes back at the finish.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed at home while making some indian food. I think this is a pretty good IPA from this new brewery. Appearance is more pale than a standard IPA, aroma is mixture of citrus and pine, taste goes down dry with a light bitterness. Need to seek out more stuff from this brewery.

Draft at Shoeless Joe's. Pours a clear golden color with a sheet of white head that never dissipates and lace that costs the glass pretty much without a gap. Hops on the nose are citrus and pine. There's a bit of cracker malt as well. Taste is medium-plus bitter with a lighter malt backbone. Fairly creamy feel. Soft to average carbonation. Somewhat dry close. Never heard of this brewery before, but this is a solid IPA.
