Smells of some piney hops with too many malt notes for an IPA. Medium Amber color with a small white head. Tastes of floral hops with a sharp apple bite to it. Aftertaste is too bland without a long lasting taste too it.

Bottle: Poured a coppery amber color with a off white head. The aroma was hoppy and some citrus to it. The taste was a lovely hoppy tange, this was a nice beer throught with just enough mildness to balance out.

On tap, Burlingame location. Pours nice golden color with minimal head. Starts off fairly malty but has a nice hoppy finish

Draft at Steelhead BC, Eugene, OR. Off-white small head that mostly diminished, next to no lacing, no carbonation observed, slightly hazy, and a gold hue. Nose was hoppy, citrus and some pine notes. Flavor was malt, hoppy and citrus. Smooth mouthfeel and light-medium body. Quaffable, decent brew for the style. Worthy of a try!

A good IPA - going from memory here. Nice and amber with minimal head, flavors of citrus and a little pine.
