Location: Draft at O.H.S.O., 3/8/14
Aroma: It has a nice resiny/pine aroma, with some nice citrus, and some spice notes
Appearance: This one pours a clear golden color with a nice white head on it
Flavor: The taste is much the same, with a big hoppy bitterness, and a clean hop finish
Palate: The body is medium-plus, it has a clean feel, and a nice, dry finish
Overall Impression: This was another really tasty beer from Dragoon. It wasn't quite as good as their Red IPA, but it was a heck of a beer. Excluding the much ballyhooed Wilderness (which totally lived up to the hype), I think Dragoon may have been the Arizona brewery that impressed me to the most on my trip.

Poured up at Flanny’s Arizona on Tap Festival with a crystal clear deep gold body that supports an off white head of foam. The aroma offers up pine hops as well as a good size dose of floral hops and then a sliver of grapefruit like citrus hoppiness. The taste is full of firm hoppiness with bitter grapefruit and tangelo that has an edge of resiny hops and then flowing into a good load of floral hops that are mixed with sweet malts. With additional sips a resiny pine hop note starts to move more and more forward. Enjoyable single hop effort.
