32oz growler filled at the brewery, poured into a snifter.

Pours out a very cloudy pale yellow orange color with a big full white head that fades to a nice thin layer with lots of sticky lacing. Pale and cloudy.

Fairly dank, orange citrus, citrus of all kinds, slightly catty, a bit of graininess comes in as it warms.

Again, some nice citrus with a nice addition of pine. Bits of tropical fruit and catty hops come in every now and then with a bit of dankness. Some good even hop bitterness lingers in the finish. Mostly hop forward, but a bit of light doughy grain is noticeable.

Medium to light in body, nice smooth carbonation.

A solid iPa with lots of nice favors. Very fresh tasting. I could come back to this again and again, very drinkable.

Serving type: growler

On tap at Blue Monk:

Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with bright orange edges. Eggshell white head sticks around and leaves good lacing. Aroma of slightly sweet malts, lots of citrus and floral hop notes. Great nose. Taste follows the nose superbly. Bitter with great hop flavor, balanced well with a sweet, dry finish. Dare I say the best IPA brewed in Buffalo? Absolutely! A well balanced IPA that is very drinkable, I will reach for this again.

A- Pours a medium yellow gold color with a thin creamy layer with delicate carbonation.

S - Light passionfruit and floral citrus, but bright with a crisp character in the nose. The malt is non-existent in the aroma.

T - Juicy passion fruit with floral and light citrus all the way through, light biscuity malt buried underneath gives it just enough sweetness to tame the hops "a little bit". Assertive floral and citrus bitterness ends the experience for a lingering finish along with some passion fruit rind coating the tongue.

M - Light medium body, sprightly carbonation on the tongue with moderate pricklies and finishes dry.

O - A hop forward IPA with some West Coast attitude. With an ABV in the low 6's, this is an IPA I could enjoy multiple glasses of in one sitting. Nicely done, but only available at Pizza Plant in the Buffalo area.
