Review and Tasting

Sampled on 02/02/2012

Appearance

Clear, light golden yellow with thick head which fades to a creamy foam leaving moderate lacing.

Aroma

Floral, grassy/hay barn hops with slight metallic note.

Taste

Fruity cooked apricot/apricot jam with bitter grapefruit zest hops that while potent are not as bitter as other IPAs. Carbonation is very acidic but the high alcohol strength is remarkably masked.

Aftertaste

Pine/eucalyptus and pink grapefruit zest and juice.
