Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2015. Pours a pale light gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma is full of musty wheat and earthiness with a hint of light tart fruits. Flavor is more tart fruit forward with a earthy wheat and a hint of wine dryness.

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2015. Pours a hazy deep gold with a bubbly white head that disispates to the edges. Aroma has a nice earthy citrus note with some grain and a bit of bitterness. Flavor has a combination of bitter and earthy citrus with a bit of light grain and a hint of grapefruit underlying.

Pour is a murky looking brown and orange with a small white head. Aroma is a nice pine hop and something like a herbal sage. Flavor is again a nice floral hop with some candi sugar and finishes with some herbalness. Decent beer again outta a big ass can.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head outta the big ass 24oz can. It actually says big ass can on the side. Aroma is a equal parts citrus hop with a sweet caramel backbone. Flavor is a nice dank hop. Malts are there but not as big as I thought they would be. Still a bit sweet and chewy. Finish is plenty bitter on the tongue at first then a sweetness emerges after the swallow. This is a pretty solid east coast/west coast hybrid IPA.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed at home after a tough day, needed a nice bike ride and good brew. Appearance is a very cloudy dark gold with a nice white head that laces to the glass. Aroma is unique, definitely full of spice and yeast with a citrus hop profile. Taste goes down bitter with similar Belgian IPA qualities, interesting take on the style, overall it’s pretty good.
