Nov 7, 2007 Courtesy jayg. Very dark brown/black with brown edges and a small, tan head. Flavor and aroma dominated by hops- citrus, resin, pine spicy florals. Malt support is mildly sweet and toasty with some subtle cocoa. A bit of chocolate malt? Medium body, balanced carbonation, easy to drink. Excellent change of pace for an IPA.

Sep 17, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Dark chestnut color with a thin off-white head. Nice crisp grapefruit color with a hint of mild roasty malts. Nice hop crispness to start the taste, some biscuity malt in the middle, and the finish is hops again, a nice citric tingle. The dark grains add an interesting nuance to the brew, adding just enough of a toastiness behind the relatively aggressive hops to leave you thinking about what’s different.

Oct 24, 2006 Alpha King Competition 2006: Poured a dark brown color. Nice hop aroma with roasted notes of coffee and even a little ash. Nice hoppy finish. The beer was decent. Almost like a IDarkA.
