A - Pours a dark orange color, with a very sturdy looking head of about a finger high. Great lacing and decent retention, clings in nice patches all the way down.

S - Nice floral hops with some subtle fruit in the back. Earthy qualities.

T - Great hops flavor, but the first thing that hit me was this sort of caramel sweet malt, followed by the hops. The scales tilt that way for the rest of the drink, sadly. I do enjoy bitter IPAs as much as the next guy, but a little balance would be nice.

M - Typical dry finish, mellow creamy carbonation.

O - This is a very tasty brew. It certainly sticks with the trend of SN not disappointing.
