Commercial Description:
This liquid dream pours a hazy golden orange straw color with a large puffy white two-finger head. First sip of this beer rewards with a super juicy hop presence bursting with fresh orange and lemon citrus then continues to introduce toasted malt undertones.

Slightly hazy gold color with a medium head. Smells like you just jammed your face into a pile of hops just ripening on the vine while snorting orange juice. Lovely and borderline stunning citrus hop flavor. Lots of orange and tangerine. On the bitter side of life, but not acidic. A honeyish malt backbone. Excellent stuff.

Pours a very light gold color with white head and a good amount of lacing. Aroma is dominated by hops and a hint of lemon. Medium bodied. Excellent hop flavor nicely balanced with malt and citrus fruits. This is another great beer from Founders, who I have never been disappointed with.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a vibrant golden color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was strong pine, grapefruit and resin. The flavor was sweet and tangy with intense pine and grapefruit and moderate notes of pear, resin. There is a light undertone of caramel and nut. The finish is long, sweet and hoppy. medium body. Excellent

12 oz. bottle from Ludlow Wines. Pours a slightly hazy yellow-orange straw color with a big, rocky, eggshell white head that leaves some nice lacing behind. Aroma of citrus hops, straw, sweet malts, and grass. Flavor is sweet and just a little bitter early and really bitter late- hops, orange and lemon citrus, sweet malts, straw, caramel, and leaves. Long, bitter finish. Light bodied, average carbonation. Very nice IPA.

Pours a deep golden color with a moderate white head. Aroma consists of pine, citrus and hops. Flavor is dominated by hops early, yet with a bit of citrus towards the end. Finishes strong, but doesn’t leave the lingering aftertast.

This beer pours a clear yellowish with a fizzy white foam. The aroma is intense. Citrus, creamsicle, pine, citrus, mango, citrus, and a little bit of locker room sneak through. Intensely citrus and fresh, fresh hops, which is where that locker room hint comes from, very thick and resiny. The flavor is quite hoppy, focused on citrus. I really enjoy this beer, a lot. If you like nothing but hops, you will too.

From Bruisin’ Ales. Pours dark golden, with significant white head. Hoppy aroma, tad above average mouthfeel. Very drinkable tasty, though significant IBU, still some balance. Hop lead citrus lemon mint.
