On draft into a pint glass.

A thin white head sits atop a golden glass of beer. Lots of lace is left around the glass.

Big notes of citrusy grapefruit and orange hops jump into your nostrils.

The citrusy hops are prevalent in the taste along with some pineynes.

It is smooth, dry, with a medium - full body and a slight carbonation that feels nice on the tongue.

I'm fairly new to the IPA game and this thing knocked my socks off. More please.

Serving type: on-tap

Poured chilled in standard ale glass

A: dark orange; very little head; carb is good, but the bubbles are inert; little lacing
S: very hoppy, lively; aroma lasts quite a while; promises much in the way of hops
T: sweet, intense IPA; quite lively; strong in the finishing hops
M: viscous, thick mouthfeel

This is an amazing IPA, but to be had only on occasion, because of the intensity

Serving type: bottle
