Can from Publix. Pours mostly clear dark orange with a mostly white head. Aroma is light pine. The flavor has moderate hop bitterness, but seems to be missing the HUGE amounts of hop flavor remarked about in the description. Sweet finish that drifts towards sweet IIPAs which I don’t care for. A bit thin.

Can from Publix. Hazy dark orange with an average white head. Light aroma. Some doughy malt and citrus. Well balanced. Sweet malts and bitter hop flavors play back and forth.

Draft pour at Paws. Muddy caramel color pour with a thin head. Caramel malt forward aroma, with sweet fruit, and hiden hops. Very nice flavor to this one. Hops are more dominant, rich, caramel malt constant, and a cool refreshing finish. Not the prettiest looking IPA, but quite tasty.

Shaker pint at Jake’s American Bar at Royal Pacific Resort in Orlando, Florida. The pour is a mostly clear yellow golden with a small white head. The aroma is wheat grain, floral, citrus and some bubblegum yeast. The taste is the citrus floral along with a bit of the bubblegum wit yeast of the nose. The palate is light bodied with active carbonation and a dry citrus yeast finish. Hit the spot.

Tap @OIB, Vero Beach, FL.
Deep golden color, small off-white head, some lace. Citrus, a bit resiny aroma. Medium-bodied. Sweetish, piney-resiny flavor, citrus. Not really showing its ABV. Sweetish aftertaste. Ok.
