Commercial Description:
We like to think this is an ale for everyone who believes you make your own luck. We sure did. And the result is a well-balanced, soulful IPA with just the right amount of hoppiness. An even keeled ale that goes down clean and refreshing, but still lets you know it’s been doted on by the Brewmaster. It’s true to it’s IPA heritage, but also highly drinkable. Lucky U. And we seriously mean that.

Bottle. Hazy, rusty, orange-amber, with a pock-marked foamy top. The aroma is orange and piney. This drinks with a nice rustic chewiness, metallic and barky, a bit leafy and green, too. Tingle of citric finish. (#3765, 12/6/2009)

Clear orange color with a beige head. Aroma of bread and a little caramel malts. Flavor is a little salty with medium bitterness. Finish is long and bitter.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy orange-amber color with a large orange-white head. The aroma was strong gritty floral hops. The flavor was strong floral hops, a touch of fruity hops and was very dry. No malt presence discernable. Bitter. Smells and tastes like a hop pellet. Ok.

nice hop aroma, flavor is a little off for me, pretty malty, solid bitterness, but not enough hop flavor to keep up with the bitterness or balance the malt, not bad, but pretty average

(draught at saucer on the lake) pours clear orange with lasting head and excellent lacing. Nose of bread. Alcohol, muscat grapes, sweaty socks. Taste of bitter hops, grapefruit, very carbonated. Finishes bitter. Not enough malt to balance this one out.
