Nov 8, 2009 Received from kyzr via trip to Montana back in 2007. Pours a semi-clear copper colored brew with a thin off-white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma of light caramel malt, citrus zest a hint of lemon and a touch of earthy spice. Taste is fruity caramel malt, with plenty of citrus flavors that overpowers any other flavors. Finish is semi-dry with some mild bitterness and citrus aftertaste. Bottle held up pretty good after two years of aging.

Aug 29, 2008 Golden-orange color with a nice head. Smooth and creamy texture. Surprisingly complex malts -- intense toast, rich toffee and dark caramel. Some burntness and a pinch of campfire. Earthy hops with dark pine, ripened grapefruit, pear and apricot. Rock-candy sweetness lingered, as did grass. Fitting level of bitterness. Really tasty IPA with some interesting things going on. Solid malt backbone as well.

Aug 24, 2008 Appearance: Clear, hardly any head.
Taste: Not a whole lot there. Watery and light. Not a strong finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-Bodied
Drinkability: Not a strong contenter with the other greats out there! Too easy to forget.

May 4, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, amber body with a small, white head. Pretty much looks like their PA.

Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Strinkingly similar to their Pale Ale, just with a slight increase in the hops.
