8.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8.5 Flavor 8.5 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Pint Can. Pours a crystal clear yellow gold color with a medium white head that has fair retention and lacing. The aroma is medium in strength with pine, grapefruit and a trace of caramel. The taste is more pine, mild grapefruit, some bread and a bit of caramel. The palate is light and crisp. Overall: Just a good basic IPA. Seems like a west coast style to me, but the brewer make no such claim.

385ml bottle. Batch 1. Pours a deep dark purple color. The aroma is medium in strength with mixed berries. The taste on the other hand is is a big bold blast of ripened currants. A touch. of woody tannins. The palate is full and smooth. Finishes insanely long with sweet berries lingering. Overall; Damn fine mead

7/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
12 oz can. Pours a clear yellow color with a small-ish white head that soon dissipates. The aroma is medium in strength with citrus and herbs. The taste is more of the same--light citrus and some herbal stuff. The palate is on the lighter side but appropriate for an APA. Finishes short and clean. Overall: Very crushable goes down easy.

5.1/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 5 Flavor 5 Texture 4 Overall 5
Pint Can. Pours a slightly hazy piss yellow color with a small fizzy white head . The aroma is rather weak and indistinct with some faint cereal grains and a touch of citrus. The flavor was equally understated with weak grain and citrus notes. Bitterness is mild. The palate was light and over-carbonated with fizzy/prickly carbonation. Finishes short and forgettable.
