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

Pours a pale yellow, and has about an inch of head. Great lacing. It smells sweet and tastes of citrus fruits with lots of intense hops coming through. It tastes hoppy, citrusy, and light. It has a nice caramel-like malt taste. The mouthfeel and carbonation are closer to that of an IPA, but great overall. Bitter at first, but it subsides gradually, making this a very drinkable beer. Dry finish. The above 8% ABV alcohol is hidden very well. Awesome beer at a great price (8.99 for a 6 pack).

4.04/5  rDev -0.5%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25

Serving type: 12 oz bottle poured into IPA glass

A: Lighter golden color. Lighter than I would have expected for this style. Still pretty to look at. One finger head, left small amount of lacing on the side of the glass.

S: Definitely can smell the hoppy content of the beer. Noticed the aroma well before I poured it. Very nice citrus and grapefruit aroma. Some floral notes as well.

T: Moderately bitter. Not quite as much bitterness as i was hoping for. Slightly mislead by the great aroma. Slight caramel taste to it. Definitely taste the citrus, fruity flavors, some grapefruit. Masked the higher abv quite nicely.

M: Generally good carbonation. Mouthfeel was not disappointing. Medium body.

O: A good beer, but with so many other rather outstanding IPAs out there, this one may not be one i will go back for on a regular occasion, but definitely glad i grabbed a sixer of it. For I will definitely want more than one glass.
