Aug 4, 2009 Had on tap at the brewpub. A very solid and tasty IPA that can easily compete with some of the big dogs. This place is great and will be coming around soon...

Aug 3, 2009 The most intense beer I’ve ever tried up to this point. Wow! Aroma of hops and citrus fruit. Flavor of grapefruit and hops. I really enjoyed this.

Jul 22, 2009 Draft at the brewpub. Brown-orange color. Foamy, soapy head. All out Amarillo aroma, very nice. Hop taste is in your face too, quite a big Amarillo blast. Strawlike bitter and dry notes. Some citrus too. Very well done.

Jun 2, 2009 Bottle bought @Riley’s in Madison early may. More malt noticable for aroma and some citrus. Cloudy copper body with off white head. Thicker malt dominated the flavor and took away the crispness that is present in an ipa. Heavy on the palate this beer seemed to have lost some zip.

May 31, 2009 Bottle shared by Ogglethorp. Cloudy amber pour with a thin beige head. Citrus hop aroma that is a bit rusty and a tad too piney. Earthy hop flavor, but overly vegetable-ish.

May 26, 2009 Thanks to CaptainCougar for this bottle. Pour is a deep cloudy orange with a smallish white head. Aroma is malt, pine hops, citrus (grapefruit) hops, a touch of caramel, and some floral notes. Flavor is dominated by the hops, but in a good way. The malt mellows out the hops without being a dominating presence. The finish is a bit more malty however, with caramel notes brushing up alongside the citrus hop character. Malt comes through more as it warms, but still a hop driven beer, as one would expect from an IPA. A very rich IPA, good stuff.

May 19, 2009 Thanks to Steve for the bottle.. this sucka FLEW off the shelves! Poured medium orange with a dusting of eggshell head. The aroma was vibrant and lovely with huge grapefruit and passion fruit over caramel and juicy grapefruit meat.. peppery notes on the very back. The flavor had sweet toffee and caramel at the core with the juicy grapefruit, bright pine, and pineapple bitterness around.. dryness on the back that was akin to oxidation, but I don’t think it was.. finished spicy and warm with a long citrus impression. Medium-bodied and well-balanced on the palate.. excellent brew!
