Grabbed a growler of this at the Commander release. Poured into some soft of glass:

A - Deep, golden honey amber with constant carbonation up the sides. Half of an inch of creamy head with really nice lacing.

S - Nice pine bitterness and undertones of grapefruit, pineapple and orange. Little bit of lemon grass and slight malt backbone.

T - Malt and some pine bitterness. Very much a west coast like IPA with heavy citrus hops that are pretty well balanced. Nice resin and pine stickiness for an after taste.

M - Bitter tingle and bit of a drying effect. A nice souring citrus lemon and lime sensation that leaves a tingle in the after feeing.

O - Really glad I got to try this one. I thought it was really, really tasty and would drink this all the time if it was in bottles. Nice job on this one Lift Bridge.

Hop DIsh pours a dark golden color, with a nice large lacing head. Their are floral notes, but a nice golden malty aroma also comes through. The taste has a strong crisp malty taste, with floral notes coming through as well. A very well balanced IPA. Overall a very drinkable enjoyable and balanced IPA.

Serving type: on-tap

This beer pours a hazy dark orange color. The head is a half an inch in height, and recedes quickly into sparse lacing. The aroma is of grapefruit, pine and tangerines. It is fairly aromatic, but it smells uninspired to me. I've smelled a lot of IPAs like this one, and most of them didn't do much for me. The taste is similar to the aroma, and has a vrry subdued bittrrness. So subdued, in fact, that most modern day APAs have a more pronounced bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation for the style. Overall, this isn't the IPA for me. I can't see myself drinking this again.
