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

Appearance- orange copper, plenty of carbonation, thin whispy head

Smell- bready and grain mixed with earthy hop notes, herbal spices and lemongrass come to mind

Taste- light caramel on the front, grain malts on the middle, and a delightful earth hop on the finish

Mouthfeel- medium body with milky texture, slow mannered fade out

Overall- Solid brew, not an extreme IPA for the hop heads, hardly noticeable alcohol warmth. The balance is key.

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

Poured a cloudy amber with very little to no head, slight lacing down the glass as I drink it.
Interesting nose to this - not as punchy as most IPAs, smell is mingled with caramel and malt.
That being said, it doesn't deliver the hop bitterness and is a little smoother than I thought it would be. Not a bad beer, but probably not something I would seek out on a regular basis.
Worth a purchase if you haven't had it.
