Apr 17, 2009 On tap at The Red in Santa Cruz. Clear brownish copper color with a thick beige head that leaves tons of epic lacing. Aroma is surprisingly hop-centric, with lots of pine, orange zest, and herbal resin. Flavor is also rather hoppy. Herbal with solid bitterness and only a touch of cocoa maltiness. No idea why this would be classified as a brown ale; it’s seriously hoppier than a lot of IPAs. Medium-thin body, nice carbonation, very robust. Good beer.

Mar 24, 2009 Updated: Mar 25, 20096oz pour @ blind tiger. Bartender says this is all the hops and malt left over in the year to craft a one time brew. Cool concept. Pours brown but has a strong pine hop tang to it. Very smooth, medium body with loong bitter/astrigent finish. What more ipas should try to mirror.

May 15, 2009 A nice light offering. On tap at Sugar Maple in Milwaukee. Reddish brown with a small white head. Noticeable citrus and pine in the aroma with a hint of rose petal. The taste is a bit rosey as well with some light fruit and a piney finish. Neat.

Mar 25, 2009 Tap at Blind Tiger. Deep brown beer. Aroma is very fruity and lightly spicy. Softly fruity with a lot of orange peel and grapefruity citrus. Rich pine hoppiness with a biscuity malt sweetness through the middle. A bit of dark malt character that gives a light cocoa flavour. Finishes with a firm spicy/piny hoppiness. Pretty nice.

Apr 16, 2009 Tap. Pours to a nice brownish body with a tan head. The beer is a conglomeration of smooth fruits, clean yeasts, light balanced hops. Kind of like a mild. The beer had a surprisingly clean light palate.

Mar 20, 2009 Draft at BT. Pours a dark brown body with a tan head. Citric pine and fresh cut grass. Floral with sharp carbonation and a hint of coco and chocolate malts. Some toasted malt and a bitter coffee finish. Interesting brew that much i’ll say.
