On draught. Tasted during trip to California. Unclear golden colour. With a melon aroma. Taste very much of citrus that ends up some what hoppy, nice bitter. Good balance of the hops.

Draught at Sequoia Brewing Company, Fresno
Light amber in colour with a thin quickly dissipating white head. Fruity, citrusy aroma with a slight malt balance. Nice hop flavour with a sharp, drying finish. Very well balanced and tasty IPA.

Light amber color with no head. Light bread and malt aroma. Mild malt, yeast and very light citrus hops flavors. Not very hoppy for an IPA. Disappointing.

Light amber color...bordering on gold with no head. The aroma was dissapointing considering that this thing was made with ten different types of hops because there was no hop aroma...just some slightly bready tones. The flavor was mildy hoppy...some citrus bitterness, but not much else. The feel was crisp and medium thin with a dry finish.
