Orangey color, small white head. Not a bad IPA, nothing spectacular however.. The bitterness of the hops aren’t balanced very well. The nose is hops and citrus. Aftertaste is sharp bitter hops. Just not a full beer, needs something else.

Pours orange with a small white head. Aroma is subdued, citrus and flowers. Taste is much the same, subdued. This needs some more strength to be really good.

Orange/Amber color. Little white head. Not much aroma, mostly florall and citrus notes. Lackluster flavor, not bad, just nothing to write home about. I’d drink this again for sure, but it’s not a favorite. Overall: Decent IPA.

Draft. Nice gold color with very little head. Wonderful hoppy aroma and flavor. Pretty good mouthfeel too. I liked this one a lot.

Bottle. Bright orange. No head. Hoppy, sweet, a little spicy, with orange peel residual. Bitter bite at the end. Sampled @ American Beer Fest in Boston

Copper pour with a 1 finger white head and some nice lacing. Great pine and floral aroma with earthy malt and some tropical fruit notes. Lots of bitter pine flavor upfront with a balance of topical fruit and sweet chewy malts in the finish. Medium body with a nice creaminess to it. I’ve gotten to be a little jaded after drinking so many ipa’s lately but this stands out. Lots of great hop character without going over the top for the style.

bright and clear amber-bronze colour with a big creamy pale beige foam; solid flowery hoppiness with notes of cream and mango, quite full malt body and with a robust bitterness; moderately dry and long bitter hoppy finish - deeply drinkable and pleasant

ARoma of citrus and hops, with a little malt. Pours is copper with white head. Slightly bitter with floral hops, malt, and a hint of caramel. Another sub-par beer from flying dog.
