Had this on tap at my first trip to Rock Bottom. I enjoyed it so much that I had to bring some home.

Nice orange color w/ a hint of amber. Nice head that dwindles to a good lace. The aroma is powerful w/ plenty of citrus hoppy goodness. Not much in the way of malts, but I do get some. The taste is quite nice w/ more of that hoppy citrus flavors. Grapefruit, lemon peel, even a bit of orange. A little fruity, but not too much. The mouthfeel was a little thin, but pretty much right on for the style. Very crisp and clean. Overall, very drinkable. It definitely has the West Coast IPA feel. Solid balance and great hoppiness make me want to go get my growler refilled right now.

Serving type: growler
