look: 3.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4

Poured from the taps into 20 oz pint glass.

A - A little too coppery to be considered "light", moderate carbonation, completely see through.

S - Plenty of hops to add floral character.

T - This was one that was really unique, it was an obvious IPA, the hops were there from the first sip. Yet it was made with wheat which made this the lightest IPA I have ever tasted and devoid of the heaviness and palate-killing qualities usually associated with the style. It was refreshing and still had the hop bite! For this reason it is perhaps the best IPA ever brewed.

M - Interesting, had the lightness of a wheat-based beer but was slightly thicker.

D - I would have one more.

Serving type: on-tap
