look: 4.25 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4

Pour is a hazy gold orange with a 1/4 finger of dense white head, with nice lacing.

Nose is a little damp, with soft, sticky pine and just a hint of citrus

Taste is pretty malty up front for an IPA, but not in a bad way. Some nice milky caramel notes, followed by wet, softly biting hops. Creates a really nice balance overall. More West Coast IPA style overall with the hops.

Feel is medium bodied, but on the thicker side.

Great local beer. Not the best IPA out there, but thoroughly drinkable, and readily available. Can never go wrong with a Sea Hag.

Big thanks to beersndrums for this one!

12 oz can poured into a pint glass at fridge-cellar temperature.

L – Hazy pale amber color with a 2.5-finger bubbly, white head. Decent retention with some wisps of lacing. I can’t really appreciate many bubbles due to the haze.

S – A solid caramel malt backbone with mostly grapefruit and orange hops, but there may be some mango and a touch of pine in the bouquet, as well. This smells really nice.

T – It starts off sweet with the bready, caramel malt and citrus flavors. As the taste progresses, the citrus sweetness shifts to citrus hop bitterness. Toward the finish, some piney resin joins the party.

F – Medium-bodied with pretty good carbonation, a sticky, chewy, and creamy mouthfeel, and a bittersweet and slightly dry finish. Pine and grapefruit hop flavors linger for a bit.

O – This is a nice IPA. It’s a touch on the maltier side of the scale, and the hop bouquet is a bit one-dimensional with mostly citrus aromas and flavors, but the beer is certainly well put-together. It’s tasty and definitely drinkable. Thanks, Jared!
