Crisp copper and bronze coloured body with a nice three centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of fresh grassy, resinous and piney hops with a nice malt backbone noticeable with some light herbs and some subtle fruit notes along with a hint of grapes and more soured fruit notes. Medium-bodied; Stronger resinous hops dominate the flavour with a lot of grassy and perfumey characteristics as well show through the lighter malt flavours and ending with a touch of perfumey bitterness from the hops and light citrus elements as well. Aftertaste shows a good balance of the malt and hops with a nice complexity of bitterness and pungency from the later-developing hop side of things, all with a smooth, but manageble hop and malt character. Overall, a nice and well-structured IPA with a decidedly grassy and resinous quality in a good way with a good balance. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 09-March-2018 for US$3,09 sampled at home in Monroe, Connecticut on 09-March-2018 a few hours later with my brother & sister-in-law.
