Jun 10, 2008 NABA 08’: Pours a copper color with a light puffy white head. The nose is citrusy and piney with a ripe floral hoppiness and lots of simcoe-y notes. Decent malt base too with a semi-sweet caramel and juniper note. The finish is a little thick and sweet. Excellent nose and a decent flavor. I love the hops in this one.

Feb 2, 2008 Hazy copper color with white head. Nose of grapefruit, grass and pine. Flavor is huge on the hops, mainly simcoe, that are somewhat balanced with a light sweetness from the malt. Very nice ultra hoppy finish.

Dec 10, 2007 Very intense, flavorful hops in this beer. It smells like wild prairie and flowers. Bitter hop flavor, and light malt. It isn’t very balanced, and is all about the intense hops, and that is OK. One of the best IPAs I have had in a long time. Diry brown color. Thanks to Skyview for sharing.

Dec 6, 2007 Growler from Skyview. Very murky, muddled orange color with a thin head. Seriously strong hop aroma with grapefruit and tangerines dominating. The taste really doesn’t change much. Tangerine is the standout. Finishes a little grassy.

Dec 6, 2007 Another growler courtesy of Skyview. A very murky toffee color with a dirty white head. The aroma was of pine and grass clippings. Flavor of a variety of hops with a lot of grapefruit and a bit of grassy flavor as well. This is a great beer.

Nov 6, 2007 One of their four three house beers, this is available on draught in the brewery’s taproom of Billings, Montana. Pours a hazy caramel amber brew with a decent off-white head that has some excellent lacing and foamy top retention. Aroma of light multi-grain biscuits, and an over the top grapefruit and tangerine zest. Taste is medium bodied, very light carbonation, slightly smooth yet dry malty texture with some sweet citrusy hops to curl your tongue on any given day. Finish has a lingering piney bitterness along with an unique tangerine zest flavor. Of rating beers on and off during the past year, Carter’s De-Railed IPA has to be one of the best West Coast Caliper IPA ales to come out of Montana.
