Served on draught at the Wisconsin Micro-brewers Beerfest in Chilton, Wisconsin. Pours a slightly orange amber brew with a thin and fast dissolving off-white head that leaves behind a thin off-white ring. Aroma of citrus zest, some pine character, grapefruit and just a touch of caramel malt. Taste is medium bodied, more of a sweet citrus zest flavor that hides some of the caramel malt character. Finish has a slight dry vegetable and some citrus aftertaste flavors that quickly disappears.

Pour is medium golden with no head. None of the Fox River brews have a head that I bought. Aroma is of stale hops. Flavor is a bit better with a nice hoppy character with a slight floral note and a little pine. Not a lot going on here. An average IPA that is not worth buying again.

Tap @ Appleton location. Good standout piney aroma. Darker copper body with thin head. The citrus hop flavor made of for the fact it is a medium bodied brew. Cool and crisp on the palate a good brew.

Had a glass of this at the Appleton locaiton. Clear amber body, thin but dense white head. Assertive C-hop flavor. Pine, grapefruit rind, dandelion petals over a roastier-than-usual caramel body. Dark green resinous hops in the aroma. Medium body plus low levels of carbonation make for a good mouthfeel. A suprisingly assertive beer for a brewpub in a mall.
