Sampled @ Hopcat’s. Copper color small head. Nice aroma flavor of floral hops and fruits. Taste is malty and finishes hoppy. A bit watery for me. but then again I had the IIPA before this. Still enjoyable.

Growler from Shorts. Poured a lovely copper with a thin white head. Attractive shortbread aroma mixed with floral hops. Strong malt and grapefruit taste with a bitter finish. Thoroughly enjoyable!

MBG 7-22-06. Biscuity maltness up front, followed by citrus and faint pine. Flavor has nice balance of fresh orange and mango, through the middle biscuit and faint caramel malt profile. Mouthfeel a little thin at times. Decent session brew.

Had this on tap awhile back. I was waiting for this to be posted. I am going from some rough notes the last time I had it. All I know is I want to try it again. Taste was big citrus and tropical, nice balancing malt backbone, finished with a big kick. Drinkable and delicious.

On tap. Pours a hazy copper color with a medium sized off white head. Aroma is caramel, citrus, light toast. Flavor is caramel, citrus, mango, toast. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finished bitter. Very smooth and drinkable APA, quite good!
