Aromas are resin, malt, citrus, tropical fruit. Flavors are similar to nose; adding in a bit of stone fruit and great balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Good body and bittersweet finish. Pretty good.

Mild aromas of resin, citrus and malt with a little stone fruit and melon. Flavors are similar to nose, citrus comes out a bit more, bittersweet with good body and carbonation. Drinkable but nothing special.

Aromas are slightly old resin, stone fruit and citrus. Flavors are similar to nose, bittersweet with soft carbonation. I wish the soft carbonation fad would end. Drinkable beer but nothing special.

Aromas are citrus peel with a little dry grain and resin. Flavors are similar to nose, leans sweet with enough bitter and carbonation to balance. Totally been done before but still very drinkable.

This has happened some in the past but it's more prominent with this one. That is, not sure that I like rye IPAs. Can't tell if it's the rye does not compliment a hoppy beer or that the hops are old. Maybe both.
