Jul 25, 2008 From bottle, courtesy of dpuart. Light grassy herbal hop nose, with some grapefruit peel and a bit of chemical astringency. Sweet brown sugar notes, too. Golden amber clear with thin off-white lacing head. Medium body with medium carbonation. Starts with a bit of brown sugar sweetness before the bitterness takes over. Astringent bitterness, harsh until the end. Unpleasant. Dry bitter after.

Jun 23, 2008 12 oz bottle from a trade with dkachur. pours orange with a nice tan head. very good IPA appearance. aromas are nice and hoppy, mostly citrus hops but some piney aromas too, there is also caramel malt sweetness. flavours are similar to the aromas. very tight and well balanced. not very big or bossy, just a well crafted IPA.

Jun 2, 2008 Sample at Alan’s HSC initation. This beer is a clear orange color with a compact off-white head that burns away slowly. Stringy lacing on the glass. The aroma is moderately bitter with hops backed up by caramel and earthy malt. Medium-bodied with a hoppy character. Notes of caramel and malt along with a bit of citrus too. The finish is hoppy and lingering. Decent all around.
