Oct 16, 2009 Bottle Pours a slightly clear amber with a good white head. The head is froathy and lasting. It laces very well. Has a nice hoppy aroma. Plenty of citrus, floral, and some sweet malts. Has a good carbonation and a swell mouthfeel. The flavor is well hopped, nice bitterness. Hides the alcohol with the bitterness. Has a medium to full body. The texture is slick. Has a solid finish with a manly aftertaste. Pretty good for my first Captain...standing with one leg up...

Oct 16, 2009 Bottles thanks to goldtwins. Pours with a clear golden yellow body and a large fluffy white head. Aroma is flowery and hoppy with some citrus backed by fresh baked baguette and caramel. Taste is hoppy, floral and decently bitter with a nice caramel zing. Lively carbonation, and moderate to light bodied for a IIPA. Good.
Cured meats, salty hard cheese and this sound like a very good match.

Oct 8, 2009 Hooked up in a trade with Cletus. Told him I wanted some nice North East beers and that is exactly what I got. Nice fluffy head on this sucker. It doesn’t fade away quickly at all. A darker gold translucent appreance. Ahh... a lovely citrus hop aroma that is nice and aromatic. Very hoppy beer I must say. Smells like someone took a grapefruit and dropped the juice right in my beer! A nice crisp pungent aroma. Nice clean hoppy aroma. Wow, a nice clean hop taste. This thing has a wonderful citrus flavor, a very nice beer. The citrus flavor is so nice, and not overpowering, and yet you are left with a nice bittering hop flavor. This beer is fantastic, and I thank Mr. Cletus for sending me this bottle. Overall, doesn’t look like much, but this thing is great.

Oct 7, 2009 Clear gold. Big, full hop aroma. Flavor is like sweet hops juice, citrus, a little pine, and flowers. The big aroma and flavor don’t match up with the thin palate, but this is really good anyway.
