Tap at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours hazy amber with a creamy beige head. Aroma seems earthy. Med body or better. Flavor is earthy, somewhat fruity, perhaps a touch of treacle. Lots of hop, but finishes with more sugar and less bitter than expected. Slightly medicinal? Not a trace of heat. A bit off the beaten DIPA trail.

On my flight in the Brewpub on 18th March 2014. Strange baby really, mine came leaning towards ’pink’ from a copper start, the head full and white. The nose seemed be a mixed fruit baskets worth of everything, sweet citrus to more sour, grapefruit and lime style smells, you can add a couple of melons in there if you wish. Slight maltiness as it warmed a little. The taste was also very fruity and a mixture of flavours. Different and not too sure I liked it. Certainly not to my taste buds compared to the other three on the flight.
