Nice bronzey golden glow, clear with a few slow bubbles of carbonation flowing in the middle. Soft, thin topping of whitish foam lasts only briefly before hitting its always stable position of dusty mist and collaring. Lots of thick lacing in bottom tattered sheeting.

Could smell this right away as it was being poured, quite a nice clean array of pale peachy resin juices and soft delicate pine notes. Almost has a certain smokey sense to it that carries a wheat germ or breadish quality. Quite nice and fairly unique.

Taste is clean and pale with a smallish tint of smoldering pine and dullish citrus. I kinda get a mess of unripe mango, some lemon notes, dull pineapple, and a bit of tangerine in there. Very soft and delicate on the palate. I guess that whole organic thing takes away from some of the excitement it might have had otherwise? Hard to say...but its a very easy drinker. Mostly malty with a slender sweetened round tone to it. The hoppyness is fluffy and kinda piney with some of the citric stuff hitting here and there. No real finish for an IPA however as its light nature is more akin to a Belgian Pale. I do like it, just not quite up to par for IPA standards.

Body is a lighter medium with a creamy center and a slender pulling hoppy tone to it. Crisp, fresh, and rounded, but lacking a real IPA grunge or flare.

Very drinkable for the most part. Even though it doesn't quite fit the bill of a soild IPA, its well-crafted and tastes good enough for some decent sessioning.
