Oct 3, 2008 Cloudy light gold body with a bright white head. The aroma has some nice fresh baked bread and hints of orange flowers. Very subtle in the hopping, especially as they want this to be considered a IIPA. The taste is bread crust and iced tea. There is also a little bit of orange peel, but it is subtle. I would consider this more of a big amber rather than an IIPA. Still, a decent and very drinkable beer.

Sep 20, 2009 Batch #207, Best Before Date: 02/02/10, 22.4 oz. Bottle. Pours a slightly-hazed orange-copper into the glass, with a light soap cap that reduces to sparse suds lace. The nose is of caramel, some toffee, Belgian Candi sugar, and grassy hops. The flavors are similar: caramel malt and candi sugar, with some tiny citrus and yeasty notes midway through, and a finish of heavy peppering bitter hops. The texture is syrupy, with a full body and smooth mouthfeel... but just this side of boozy. It simply doesn’t come together great for such palate complexities. The heavy, semi-boozy feel is a bit too heavy at the end of the pull, and knocks the brew out of balance. It feels like it’s going to be a barleywine at the outset... like an IIPA toward the middle... and just a heavy mess at the end. If controlled a bit, this would be a nice offering, especially as a nightcap. As is, I hope this is the "old" offering and await the "new" batch.
