This liquid dream pours a hazy golden orange straw color with a white, two-finger head. Your first sip of this beer rewards you with a super juicy hop presence bursting with citrus, then finishes to introduce toasted malt undertones.

Bottle: Pours a yellow with white head. Aroma is hops and fruit/citrus. Taste is lemon citrus and hops. Very wet and slick on the finish.

Courtesy of jdubFL. Pours brilliant clear gold with thin white head. The aroma is bold and fresh with in your face citrus grapefruit and tangelo along with Simcoe hop notes blending with a thin stream of sugar sweet malts. The taste is fresh too with up front hops like grapefruit, tangelo and pithy orange wedge to go along with sweet slick malts underneath. By midway the Simcoe wells up even more pulsing into the finish. Very tasty refreshing and easy drinking brew.

I love Founders and this is another solid Founders beer - thanks for sharing Joey. This was a tad on the malty side. Very good ... very good indeed. Just a bit malty. I liked it, hops present, can't be missed. More citrus than pine.

Pours a golden straw colour with a nice white frothy head. The aroma is dank and piney, with hints of fresh mint; very nice. The palate is light to medium bodied with a pleasant fresh hop oily sensation. The flavour is tart with subtle citrus fruit, lemon zest, strong resinous pine, grass, fresh bitter herbs, and white pepper that gives a long bitter finish mingled with subtle malt. This is a very refreshing and distinctively robust wet hop ale.

Explosive lemony, grapefruit aroma with underlying peeks at the malt - nose lasts throughout the serving. I want an air freshener made from this stuff. Brilliant copper to bronze in color almost like it had been polished. Sour citrus hop flavor, I've never tasted another IPA quite like it. It begins with grapefruit and gradually accentuates the bittering right through the aftertaste. Leaves you with the sensation you just chewed on a bitter lemon peel. Really awesome beer with little to no difference between the bottled and draft versions. Local Binny's limits purchases to 2 bottles per person and the keg at the local bar was gone in a heartbeat. I was a bit surprised I'd never heard of this beer until this year, but suffice it to say it's made another fan.

Better than average (man have I said that way too many times) and hoppy, like hop juice, like one kind of hop juice, maybe two, maybe a hinter of ginger, though floral hops is the predominant flavor. Enough to make you go a little numb, but not many layers of flavor.

I really love these wet hop beers, great mix of earth and citrus resin that makes this easy to drink and darn tasty. The hops are very west coast in this one, I was a fan of that. Cant agree with the review comparing it to surley wet though, not quite that good but certainly reminiscent.

I didn't think any fresh-hop beer could beat out Surly Wet but this one came out on top this year. Beautiful citrus and floral hop aroma with the citrusy hops dominating the taste but not in a palate-wrecking way. A perfectly constructed IPA but must be enjoyed fresh.

Bottle from Max Lagers in Atlanta. Beautiful golden yellow pour into the Founders snifter. Nice floral citrus bouquet. Amazing flavor profile. Floral and citrus hops, tart fruit maltiness. Really bitter and assertive. Truly great beer. Wow.
