Aroma: “Strawberry, orange, lemon, grapefruit, watermelon, lemongrass, some almost-perfumey floral qualities mixed with slight grassy and mild caramel toast.”

Flavor: “Up front citrus bitter, and then it mellows to other flavors (strawberry, lemon, lemongrass). Some spicy notes and grapefruit peel. Some distinct malty sweetness. Green pepper with some peppercorn spiciness and noticeable pine notes. Finishes slightly sweet and fairly dry. Fairly well-balanced.”

Overall: “Fairly complex, yet tasty, beer that seems to span the style gap between West Coast and East Coast IPAs with a foot in both camps. The mix of the more subtle aromas (such as strawberry) together with their big-hitting cousins in the citrus arena was intriguing. Worth more than one glass.”
