reddish brown, beautiful hoppy aroma. large white head, with medium carbonation. great citrusy hop flavor with some bitterness and then rounded with some malt balance. the orange peal is difficult to discern due to the citrusy centennial hop flavor. great beer though, perfectly balanced, no real flaw

Pretty good IIPA, but not my favorite in the world. Seems slightly weak compared to most others, but theres some good stuff going on anyway. Aroma and flavor are both dominated by citrus fruit; mango, orange, even some peach. Lots of wheat as well. Honts of candy sugar and some slight bitterness. Tasty and drinkabe, just not what I expect from a DIPA.

Bottle@Home. Orange, grapefruit and grassy aroma. Hazy, amber color, off-white head, good lace. Sweetish, very bitter, grapefruit, very grassy even a bit harsh. Light sticky with dry finish. Bit overdone but not bad.

Bottle from Sparky27. Thanks! The aroma is somewhat subdued. There are some earthy, woody floral hops with some sweet malts. Didn’t get much citrus really. Malt is a little sweet and biscuity. Pours a hazy golden tone with a huge head. Actually the carbonation was almost uncontrollable. Initial pale malts in the flavor profile followed by a good dose of floral bitterness. Oily and resiny. Dry on the palate. Well balanced and drinkable with a nice oily finish. Not bad, I could only imagine if it was on draught.

On tap at Buckeye Beer Engine. This is an extremely drinkable IPA - with excellent balance, but plenty of hop bite. The nose is citrus and floral. There is enough malt to balance the hops, but not enough to distract from the bitter hop bite. The palate is clean and dry. It never ceases to surprise.

22 oz bottle. Nice hoppy aromas and flavors. Fruity hops, apricot, mango. Finish of grassy and pine notes. Pretty good.

Bottle, thanks to kieferuga, a man who really likes PP Amigo Lager. Nice orange pour, opaque, with white head. Pleasant citrus hop aroma (oranges I think), some sweet malt also. Flavor is similar, citrusy hops, orange rind, syrupy sweet malt, and a somewhat earthy / rind-like bitter finish. Thanks again for this nice brew.

Poured a orangish gold color with a pretty big off white head. Aroma was very hoppy and very sweet. Flavor was a lot like the aroma, almost overbaringly sweet with a very strong medicinal hop finish. ok, not great.
