Orange-blond with a thick white head. Very orange-y aroma, with some floral hops as well. It’s not completely dry. There’s just enough sweetness to go with the citrus flavor. The hops are mild and grassy to the taste. Mouthfeel is creamy. A very nice and drinkable IPA.

Appearance: Pours a clear, light, pale copper body with a small, fizzy, white head. Smell: Candyish caramel and biscuity malts set against fruity notes of sweet, juicy nectarines and grapefruits. Taste: Pale malts with a light toastiness and caramel sweetness. Pinch of fresh spices. Citrusy hop character with a medium bitterness. Small taste of grapefruit on the lightly bitter finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Nothing more than a fairly easy to drink, standard American IPA. And there’s nothing at all wrong with that.

Pours a clear gold with a smaller white head. Aroma is mainly citrus hops, not overpowering by any means. Flavor is mild, little bit of citrus and some pine with some caramel malt. Very average, was hoping for something with a little more power.

Sample at Alan’s HSC initation. Bottle from Whole Foods in Henderson, NV. This beer is a clear light orange color with a minimal off-white head that disappears quickly. Spotty lacing under a top ring on the glass. Aroma of grapefruit and hops. Medium-bodied and moderately bitter with citrus and resiny hops flavors, plus a touch of malt in the background. The finish is hoppy with a lingering bitterness left over. Above average overall.

Sampled at Alan’s HSC initiation, thanks Dogbrick: Pale golden pour. Aroma is sweet grains, citrusy, some pine undertones. Intimidating aroma, but does not quite match up in flavor. Flavor is mild citrus, but lacking in bitterness. It was just OK.

Bottle. Pours clearn golden with a moderate white head. Aroma is moderate hops, with a pronounced lemon note, and a bit of caramel malt. A more grapefruit-citrus flavor, with some pine and significant caramel malt; slightly sweet. Pretty good, but lacking something.
