Bottle courtesy of BuckNaked. Copper with decent white head full of tiny bubbles. Aroma full of citrus zest up front, decent malt background. Flavor much the same, lots of grapefruit and orange zest, hints of floral hops with a nice sweet caramel malt backbone. Nice mouthfeel bitter a clean. Lingering grapefruit bitterness in the finish. Very well rounded IPA, IMO. Nicely done!

Deliciously hoppy and sweet, just enough malt, just enough balence, just enough colour and head, to make it the ideal IPA. Bravo!

This IPA pours with a small white head with good lacing. The body is a clear dark orange. The IPA has an intensely hoppy aroma of grapefruit. Grapefruits dominate the taste as well. The body is refreshing and dry with little carbonation.

Poured a great golden color with a small off-white head. Aroma was floral hops and citrus. Taste was outstanding, a real nice ruby red grapefruit flavor not too tart or bitter with a touch of sweetness.

Pours a clear amber, slightly small head. Nice citrus pine aroma, sweet caramel malt. A bit of fruit at the end also. Nice balanced flavor.
