Pours a clear copper color with an ample white head. Sweet smell of apricots, grapefruit, bubblegum. Loads of carbonation with a medium bodied, smooth mouthfeel. Mostly sweet malt taste with an herbal hop taste here. Pretty unique flavor for a pale ale, more in the English style. I’ll buy this again

Very floral scent. Lots of fruit noticeable in the very hops, tart and grapefruit-ish. Nice finish, hops stick around, but no real malts as a balancer. Decent body, a mite creamy, but nothing exceptional.

Bottle. Pours clear copper with small white head. The aroma is bread and grapefruit with a little bit of sap. The flavor is pleasantly bitter with some bread and earth. However, the body is a little too thin to support the bitterness well.

A decent IPA but nothing to get excited about. Starts off hoppy but finishes a bit dry.

Wow this is good, not an overpowering IPA, the first one I tasted with a fruit twang that is more dominate than the hops, very good session IPA when you arent in the mood to be overwhelmed with hops. If you are trying to introduce someone to IPA's this would be a good starting point as its like an IPA with training wheels.

bottle. pours a cloudy light brown amber color with a thick white head that leaves rings as i drink. aroma is the expected grapefruit hop smell. taste is like an ipa light. watered down flavor. everything i expect from an ipa but on a reduced scale. i dislike the finish, it leaves a sourness behind that is unpleasant.

12 oz bottle. Clear gold with a foamy white head. Nice nose - flowery hop, a tinge of pine. Medium bitter, floral and dry pepper. A servicable IPA, just not spectacular.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Golden coloured beer with no head. The aroma is dominated by resinous hops. Feels a fairly thick body but with very little malt or sweetness to balance out harsh bitterness in the finish. Astringent. Poor.
