7.5/10 — Appearance 10 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
16 oz. Aroma is cereal grains, nectarine, grapefruit, strawberry. Pours lightly hazy copper with a two finger cream-white head with excellent retention. Taste is moderately bitter with some caramel malt sweetness. A pithy bitterness lingers after the finish. It's pretty good. No idea how old this is with no date stamp, but I'm thinking I would love this way more if I had a fresher example.

Can bought at Trail's End. Pours a clear, bronze color, with a big, bubbly, khaki head. The nose is heavy resin, grapefruit zest, juniper berries, and lavender. Sweet and syrupy, with a big, dank bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a sticky, astringent palate. This is a fun and interesting IPA.

Poured a dark orangeish color with a small white head. Sweet malts, some light alcohol comes through with that sweetness. Flavor was kind of bland, boring. Mostly just that sweet cloy you get with this style sometimes. At the DC area socially distant Fall 2020 tasting.
