Got a chance to try this beer while on vacation in the Outer Banks, NC. A nice solid IPA, with more sweetness than is typical of the style. Remains well balanced with a great, sticky hop aroma and taste but still has the malt backbone to even it all out. Probably would have been even more enjoyable not being had on a beach. Not available in my city, but would try it again for sure if given the chance.

12 ounce bottle -> World Market Tulip Glass

This beer pours up a hazy light gold with a small 1/2 finger head, poor retention, and lots of elaborate lacing. Nose is mostly pine and citrus. Taste is very hop forward and very bitter which is exactly what I think they were going for. Mouthfeel is full (but not thick) and satisfying. Much recommended!!!!

A: Pours a cloudy golden orange in color with some darker orange highlights and light amounts of visible carbonation. The beer has a finger tall dense foamy off-white head that very slowly reduces to a very thin film covering the majority of the surface of the beer with a few small slightly thicker patches and a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Significant amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Light to moderate aromas of caramel malts with slightly stronger aromas of pine and citrus rind hops.

T: Upfront it tastes lightly to moderately of pale malts and caramel malts with just a touch of breadiness and very light amounts of sweetness. After the malts, there is a moderate amount of hop flavors that come through - citrus rind and pine stand out for the hops. Light to moderate amounts of bitterness which fade rather quickly.

M: Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Relatively smooth.

O: This has the flavors, aromas, and mouthfeel to be a sessionable IPA though it might be a little too heavy in the ABV to truly be sessionable - I would be happy to have a couple of these in a sitting though. Nice and enjoyable, easy to drink. A little maltier than I expected for the style but that was a bit of a pleasant surprise.

Poured into a pint glass. A hazy, unfiltered orange color with a thick off-white head that laces the sides of the glass.

Toasted biscuit malt with a very tame citrus hop aroma.

Flavor is much different than the aroma. The biscuit malts really let the hop come through. The hop is mostly earthy/grassy and herbal with a lingering grassy hop in the finish. There are some fruity (grape, peach) notes to the beer also. Finishes rather clean with a slight bitter bite.

Very smooth and silky feel to this beer. Medium bodied and perfectly carbonated.

Very drinkable IPA given the high ABV%.
