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

Pours a lightly cloudy, solid 2 fingers of thick head. Ample lacing, lots of carb.

Light and fresh. Maybe malt. Not much present.

Medium hop, light pine, little light malt. Somewhat nice little malt.

Medium bodied, well balanced with ABV. Could use a little more malt, mape some more aroma hop.

Id have more, but not exceptional. Id probably look for other IPAs instead of heading back.

Extremely easy to drink. Perfect balance, clean taste, no heaviness. Poured from a bottle into a tall glass -- medium head, nice, light amber appearance, not too fizzy. No distinctive aroma. The bitterness is just right, refreshing and stimulating. It's just lacking some heft or intensity -- the aftertaste is a bit watery .

bottle to goblet

A: clear, light orange/copper. very little head, retreats quickly to edge the glass and slight lacing.

S: almost no smell. very faint citrus and pine

T: moderate hit of piney hops accompanied by a fizzy carbonation. not followed by much of anything except lingering bitterness and more pine. the alcohol is right there in your throat at the end.

M: quite a lot of carbonation, low - medium body. goes down smooth and the lingering feel in your mouth is good

O: I prefer a bit more complexity, taste and balance but it packs a good hit of decent tasting hops. not my favorite but drinkable.
