Tap @ BBF: Pours an orangey color with an off-white head. Nose is ripe and fresh with a strong amount of citrus and piney hops, right up my ally. The malts are strong in melanoidin and caramel is abound. The flavor is balanced and overflowing with floral dry hopping. A great grapefruity after taste along with the medium body and zesty finish to increase drinkability. This was my fav of the show!

On tap at Boise Beer Fest Pours out a gold/copper topped with a nice sand head. Aroma was of citrus hops along with some sweet malts. Taste was more of the citrus a little grapefruit peel and a nice balance malt. A tasty IPA.

Draught @ BBF - Pours tan with a large off white head...aroma is citrus and hop florals, light...flavour is initially pleasant, moderately bitter and balanced with some malt...finish was a little dirty, old grain and something unpleasant I couldn’t really identify...nice to see some new stuff coming out, and I’d have to try this again to see what was going on...

Draft @ BBF - The rep behind the table said this was so new it was not even out in the market yet, and I had never heard of it, so I was curious. This was really impressive and tasty and I generally despise everything about New Belgium. Citrus and grapefruit nose, with a nice golden amber coloring and the nose matches the palate perfectly. Light and citrusy and a sweet malt compenent makes this one of the finer IPAs that I have had in a long time. I had to use a 2nd token to try this one again.
