Pours a hazy dark yellow, not quite orange, with 2 fingers of fluffy foam that doesn't dissipate. Aroma is a resin and pine with a touch of grapefruit and yeastiness. Flavor is a bready wit flavor, kind of a light yeast phenolic, that picks up some bitterness in the middle and ends with a slightly assertive bitterness and a breath of fruity yeast. The body is medium and the only slightly sharp. Overall, the beer is okay as it is an interesting conflation of styles, wit and IPA, but it doesn't make you want to drink another one. If I were to brew this again, I would drop the IBUs and focus on fruitier leaning hops. 3 stars.
