Oct 16, 2007 pours a slightly hazy dark amber. Aroma: applejuice, hay, lemon - interesting... Flavor: quite bitter with just a little tiny bit of sweetness. Starts very thin but lingers pleasantly.

Jan 14, 2009 Pours a nice light almost reddish orange amber with disappearing white head. The aroma is very nice - lots of resiny, citrusy, earthy hops with a bit of sweet malt. The flavor is lightly sweet, and dominated by bitter, earthy, citrusy hops with a bitter hop aftertaste. The mouthfeel is moderate. This is a very fine IPA, nice and strong on the hops in aroma and flavor. I could drink this often.

Sep 14, 2006 Bottle... Murky orange ale with a big, off-white, orange-tinted head. Terrific, rocky retention. Tangerine, caramel, grapefruit and a rumor of pine in the nose. Malty sweet, fruity flavor up front; followed closely by great bitterness on the backside. Tropical and citrus fruits, toffee and grapefruit rind tannins. Full-bodied with a milky mouthfeel and modest carbonation. Lengthy, earthy, then bitter finish. Excellent IPA. A boatload of thanks goes out to BBB63 for sending me the bottle!

Jul 18, 2007 Big citrusy hop aroma with moderate malt aroma. Low doghy yeast aroma.
Light amber with a slight cloudiness.Light ivory tight head with moderate head retention and lacing. Citrusy "C" hops flavors are up-front and heavy with malt following way behind. Dry hoppy finish. Medium body, smooth mouthfeel with alcohol warming. This is a "Hop Head" beer! Very tasty!

Jul 18, 2007 Pours a hazy bronze with an airy, clingy-lacing off-white head. Aroma of sweet caramel malt and some fresh citrusy hops. Body starts with a lot of carbonation, some sweet crystal malt and big grapefruity bittering and flavor hoppiness. Finishes drier and crisp, a pretty decent IPA.

Aug 5, 2006 The new IPA on tap at brewery: It is a bit darker in color, near coppery with a nice small frothy head and okay lace. The aroma is juicy and citric hops, caramelized and biscuity malts, some clove and pepper, and a hint of earthy yeast esters. The flavor profile is mostly bittering hops with a supporting acidic fruit component. Sort of sweet on the front of tongue but is there mostly for some balance. This new recipe is more balanced than the old despite an increase in Alpha hops. The mouth feel is lively and moderately aggressive. Good stuff.
