Enjoyed at the brewery:

Small head; exceptional lacing; lightly hopped; easily sessionable; light in color, prob. light abv w/o knowing; guessing under 60IBUs as well; expect more of a hop-forward flavor from TP's primary hop beer. Overally, not bad but certainly not exceptional.

Serving type: on-tap

Poured from a 16 oz can into a pine glass. Nice Orange -amber color. Big white head, nicely carbonated with good head retention. Bands of lacing on the glass. Nice looking beer.

Aroma provides a whiff of hops bitterness. Not much else...no pine/citrus/floral etc.

Taste is ok. Good hops bitterness without any signature hops flavors. A malty balance at the end. Certainly a thirst quencher and good with food but not a memorable IPA.

Mouthfeel is a bit thin, it is still crisp and bitter.

Overall, not bad. Provided in cans so it is portable everywhere, Tastes ok but not memorable. Good average IPA.

Reviewed from notes on 4-11
Can > Pint Glass
A - Pours a hazy copper, 2 finger head, but fades fast, and leaves little lacing.
S - Big pine aroma and honey as well, some sweet malt, but other than pine, there's no other hop aroma.
T - Way too much sweet malt goin on, some orange juice, honey, and a big pine bitter finish.
M - Medium, finishes much better than it stars with.
O - Very weak IPA, there's an excess of sweetness from the malt, and its just not executed well.

12 ounce bottle poured into a pint glass.

A: Pours a mostly clear amber color with a 1 finger head and some lacing.

S: Sweet malt aromas accompany the hops.

T: The taste on this one disappoints. It tastes watered down. It's bitter, but very underwhelming.

M: Medium bodied with plenty of carbonation.

O: This isn't one I'll be buying again.
