Sep 17, 2008 12 oz. Clear copper with a creamy head of a quarter inch that leaves frosty lace behind. Earthy vegetable, grain, citrus, molasses and oak aromas. Flavors are similar with some light citrus and resin. Medium body is smooth and dry. A bit underrated because it’s not your typical West Coast citrus-hop flavored bomb; more an earthy British-style IPA.

Sep 5, 2008 Pours a medium copper with thin off white head. The nose and flavor are dish soapy and cardboard. Really not good.

Aug 28, 2008 Sampled from 12-oz bottle and shared by Badgerben. Pours a clear golden amber brew with an average off-white head that has some nice retention and lacing. Aroma of roasted biscuit malt, a touch of grapefruit and citrus zest, some honey and toffee. Taste is medium bodied, plenty of carbonation with flavors of caramel malt, citrus zest, some lemon, iced tea and a touch of honey. Finish is a little chalky with a mild citrus aftertaste. Nothing out of the ordinary but closer to an American Pale Ale than an IPA caliper brew.

Aug 24, 2008 Updated: Aug 25, 2008Pours a hazy, dark orange-amber color with a fleeting, creamy, off-white head. Thick, sticky patches of oragnic looking lace mark the glass. Aromas are strange, showing citrus hops, scorched honey, stale caramel, toffee and butter. The flavor follows suit, with a weird mix of bitter citrus hops and stale, grainy, caramel malts with a downright odd note of burnt honey. The mouthfeel is substantial, but overly sweet and cloying. If I had to sum this up in one word, it would be "odd". This isn’t something I’ll be revisiting any time soon, if ever.
