On tap as the KoP location. Poured a darker and cloudy orange color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus and light caramel. Tastes of pretty much the same. Has a ’generic’ hoppiness to it. Thinner body.

Clear medium dark yellow color. Very sweet bubble-gum hop flavor, biting and sweet. Oak and orange and a gritty amarillo and cascade hop flavor. Fresh tasting. A bit of some burnt orange and wheat. Very pungent and strong hop nose. Biting the nose. When warmed there is an unpleasent soap flavor that is hard to get through.
