16oz can. Interesting lemon, citrus touched aroma at first, gets worse as it breathes. Pretty much a juicy IPA, in no real way a West Coast IPA. Not sure if this is just lame Lutra/Kveik yeast or what, but the body just isn't there. Drinkable I suppose, but I would never want to buy this beer again.

Aromas are malt, resin and a little citrus rind. Flavors are solutions but with old resin.

16oz can. Gathering Place can make some enjoyable Old World style stuff, but these new flavored offerings are just full on weak sauce. Way too much lime, way too little prickly pear. Boring, thin background doesn't complement the flavors...which are just weak and undesirable. Wholly unimpressive.

16oz can. Certainly in the backlog. A pretty nice IPA. Some mild malt tone, decent bitterness, balance. Not quite as chewy as I'd like in the style, but still a really enjoyable beer, one you'd want to get another of.
