Description:
An explosion of hops dominate this deep golden ale. Brewed with four varieties of hops & dry hopped with three other hops, the flavor is powerful. Not a harsh bitterness, but a full hop flavor.

Appearance - 3.5
22oz bomber poured into a pint glass. Pours a 1/4 inch of sticky white head. It has an OK retention and leaves as much lacing as possible with the small amount of head. The beer is clear and golden-orange in color.
Aroma - 3.0
The aroma is pretty mild. There is a little bit of pine and some toasted malts.
Mouthfeel - 3.5
Light in body with a small resiny feel. Nice carbonation.
Taste - 3.0
Light citrus and pine mixed with some spicier hops. Toasted malts and a bit of graininess comprise the backbone. It's well balanced but not very exciting.
Overall - 3.0
Just an average IPA. It's quite drinkable, but lacks a nice aroma and exciting flavor profile. I'd give this one another try if I could get it on tap.
