Bottle: pours light orange with white head. Aroma is citrusy, lightly funky. Taste is not very complex, but has a nice citrusy funky taste. Pleasant enough, but not very impressive.

Among the better IPAs I tried here. Pine and grapefruit. Slightly hazy orange pour with ok head. Bitter end. Decent body, ok hops flavour, just doesn't come together very well. Tap at brewery.

A hint of dishwasher detergent. Hazy golden orange pour with ok head. Closing tangy end. Maybe bretta or maybe just infected. Hard to determine the goal here. Tap at brewery.
