A – Poured out a clear copper color with a one-finger, off-white head of bubbly foam. It left some sudsy lace on the glass.

S – It smelled piney with some nice floral notes. A touch of caramel, too.

T – It tasted very yeasty with some piney bitterness. A touch of citrus zestiness and some sweet caramel.

M – It was crisp, sharp and smooth. A light to medium bodied ale with a dry, clean finish.

O – This is a nice American IPA. Curious to try more from Mother’s in Springfield, too bad they dont distribute here.

Serving type: bottle at a homebrew club meeting
