Good color, great lasting head- things little on weak side though
for an Ipa. Nothing really memorable but nothing
overtly wrong - playing it safe. Needs more body,
aroma and mouthfeel, but on right track.---

An Ipa for the mass market but for the most
part keeping it within bounds. Hops are there
but hard to center.

A-pours a golden copper color with white sudsy head with pretty nice retention
S-lots of pine and resin, some subtle malt in the background
T-more pine with some citrus notes in the finish, the malt provides a nice balance but does not lend much to the flavor
M-medium bodied
O-really nice and well balanced IPA. It isn't out of this world but definitely nails the style.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.75

Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a snifter.

A- Pours an amber clear body with a small white head that reduces quickly and leaves some uniform thin lacing.

S- Sweet caramel malt, citrus, pine, and breadyness.

T- Subtle hoppy pine, resin, and citrus zest sitting on a soft caramel, lightly toasted malt, vanilla backbone. Leaves some bitterness on the tongue.

M- Overcarbonated with a medium body.

Nothing awesome but a solid IPA that's easy going down. Not overly bitter with a nice hop-malt balance.
