poured into tulip. pours a cloudy orange with full frothy white head. citruss, strong hoppy aroma. almost a milky smooth palate. smooth, sweet citruss orange front, with a great mouthfeel to it. bitterness peeks at the perfect time in the middle, but goes into a nice smooth finish. complexity at how it approaches the palate and finishes off. good.

Oct 9, 2008 22 oz bottle from JimboWood, thanks Jimbo! Pours a murky dark orange with a huge, fluffy, white, rocky head. Aroma is piney, citrusy and floral, with a bit of honey and spice. Flavor has a great hop bite balanced with the nice sweet malt. The hops in this brew are incredibly flavorful. It has the same bitter bite as two-hearted, but so much more flavor. It’s comparable, and maybe better. Another IPA that I wish I could get all the time, but sadly, can’t.

Oct 6, 2008 Thanks Hellbilly.Thick white rocky foamy head, murky orange. Smells extremely hoppy, orange zest, spices and I can almost smell the bitterness. The coloration after completely settling is a little on the brown side for an ipa and is almost a light ice tea like color. Tastes very bitter, orange, and really hoppy. The bitterness created by the hops masks the alcohol and lingers for quite some time.

Oct 6, 2008 Bottle. Poured a hazy gold/orange with a three finger whitish head. Aroma of citrus hops, with pine notes as well. Flavor had a well balanced malt taste, supported by citrus and a pine finish. Medium/full body with good carbonation.

Oct 4, 2008 Pours a hazu orange color from the bottle with loads of carbonation and an obnoxious off-white head of creamy foam. Smells mildly of hops which build in the flavor along with notes of citrus and salt. Awfully bitter on the finish, but highly drinkable in the AleSmith tradition.
