Pours a translucent light amber with a medium frothy white head with good head retention and strong lace. The aroma is of pine and orange/lemon zest with a hint of cane sugar. The taste has a solid hop flavor with some grapefruit and pineapple. There is a bit of spice especially on the back end. Light malt flavor. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied.

Lots of bright fruitiness, And an underbelly of floral hops. Had no idea what "India-Style Wheat Ale" meant, so we took a chance and were pleasantly surprised. I really wish I didn't have to rate the appearance, as I drank this out of a cup on a dark patio. It wasn't really hoppy enough to be called an India-style anything, but it was good, nevertheless. The wheat flavors were buried under the taste of yeast and golden fruit.

Tasted on tap at the 8th Annual Triple Rock Firkin Fest on 4/9/2011. This IPA pours a slightly hazy medium gold color from the firkin. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is wheaty, floral and piney. A medium bodied IPA. The malts are fruity, yeasty and sweet. The hops are citrusy and floral. Nice soft mouthfeel and carbonation. This beer has that yeastiness of a Belgian and a nice citrusy hoppiness. The bitterness tends to linger. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
