Got this one as a bonus in a trade. Thanks dulwich!

This baby pours out a hazy apricot color with a thin head. The nose is nice and assertive and you get typical IPA notes of lemon and pine. Flavors are a bit off-balanced for an IPA. Sweet marmalade and fruit come first, then a nice rush of lemony hoppy goodness joins in, but not quite enough to balance out the sweetness. Mouthfeel is a bit firm. Overall, the beer is not bad, but it's not one I would seek out. Perhaps my sample wasn't fresh enough to be a good representation, but I thought this beer was just a bit too sweet for my palate.

Love the name and pours a golden yellow hue with a creamy two finger head and lacing everywhere,the smell is torn orange leaves,sherbet,eucalyptus,mandarins and a touch of lavender,the mouthfeel is medium bodied and moderately carbonated with tastes of strong citrus,pineapple,fruit salad,paw paw and finished with a hit of piney bitterness and overall it's a nice IIPA and easy to knock back but nothing out of this world cheers.
