| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 27, 2009 Sampled at 2009 WIU Performing Arts Society Beerfest. Red amber with small off-white head, totally diminishing. Very nice resinous pine and sweet malt aroma with brown sugar and toffee and underlying peach. Nicely balanced sweet/bitter flavor, the caramel malts really pop. Finish is quickly waning, just a touch thin towards the end. My favorite of the IPAs I sampled at the festival. screigh (262), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA

Not a ton of bitterness. I wish it had a bit more malt backbone. Great beer. I have liked just about anything Big Sky brews. carruthm (1167), Seattle, Washington, USA
