Growler shared by ygtbsm94. Thanks Brad. The beer is radiant golden with a small white head. The aroma brings pine and hops with a hint of citrus. Smells nice. The flavor brings some tangy citrus, finishing with a bitter hop kick. Light to medium bodied with appropriate carbonation. Good stuff.

Serving type: growler

Poured from the growler into a tasting snifter.

Appearance: The beer pours a clear golden amber color with a layer of white head. The head goes away rather quickly.

Smell: Mild hops with a nice malt backbone. Just a bit floral.

Taste: Citrus peel hops with enough malt sweetness to balance things out a bit. The finish is very bitter.

Mouthfeel: The body is medium with tingly carbonation and a dry finish.

Overall: This was a solid IPA. There was nothing there to put it over the top, but I enjoyed it enough.

Serving type: growler
