Tasted on tap at the Drakes 1st Annual Beer Festival and Washoes Tournament. Pours a medium orange gold color. Small to medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is herbal and floral. A medium to light bodied IPA. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are floral and herbal. A low to medium bitter IPA. Lot of fruit flavors, orange and tangerine. Smooth tasting. Good balance. Crisp and clean. Perhaps a touch lighter in body than the other Summit IPAs tasted here today. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
