Not as hoppy as the name suggests. Tasty, easy to drink and comes in 22s! Who could ask for more?

Not an overwhelming IPA. I liked this one, high ABV is well hidden.

Tasting at Navarre beach house.

Aroma:
Strong and fruity. Deep notes of fresh cut orange the travel well beyond the glass.
Appearance:
Clear and deeply golden. Pours with a small but tight and long lasting off white head.
Taste:
The first initial taste is that of a freshly picked orange. Light and citrusy with just a slight floral note on top. The bitterness from the hops quickly overtakes the mouth and fades down quickly. The after flavor combines a slight earthy edge from the hops with the orange flavor. A slightly medium mouthfeel adds just a small chewy edge.
Overall:
Another nice selection from a great brewery. The flavors are intense but not overwhelming. Still they do a good job covering any burn from the higher alcohol content. The base holds it sweetness against the onslaught of the hops. A very pleasurable drink.
