Draft at the brewpub. Nose is grainy wheat and yeastiness; no fruit esters I could detect. Murky white gold with a medium glass lacing white head. Flavor was light pepperiness and grainy yeast. My daughter loved this and took home a growler. Not estery enough for me.

Flavor of whet, bananas, spiciness, and very light bitterness. Finishes with a slight tinge of alcohol warmth. Can’t wait for the barrel aged version!

22oz bottle–pours a foamy light tan head that laces and hazy amber color. Aroma is citrus-grapefruit/lemon, peach, some sweet light malt. Taste is citrus-grapefruit/lemon with some bitter, some herbal/mineral, peach, back bone of light/medium malt-caramel. OK effervescence. Some English character. Enjoyable. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for sharing.

Growler from the brewpub. Nose very hoppy with floral, ivy, pine, and citrus notes. Lightly hazy orange-copper with a medium, glass-lacing, offwhite head. Flavor is bitter with pine, and some background caramel. Pretty nice hoppy stuff for a single IPA!
