Oct 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a murky light brown with a huge, thick foamy tan head that subsides fairly quickly. Aroma of rich caramel malt, bitter hops, light citrus, and coffee grounds. Flavor of sweet caramel malt, iced tea, and slightly hoppy finish. Nice malty IPA.

Mar 27, 2009 Bottle. Stong hops, grains and soil aroma. Dark amber colour with huge beige head. Bitter hops flavour although with fine notes of oats, raisins and nuts which adds to the dry aftertaste.

Aug 23, 2009 341 ml bottle from Premier in Halifax. Pours a murky brown/gold with moderate, slightly off-white head. Assertive hoppy nose (citrus and pine) with nice caramel malt backing for sweetness. Malt profile readily apparent in flavour leading to fruity hops. Medium+ body, fine carbonation, bitter finish, sticky mouthfeel. Quite nice.

Sep 12, 2009 Bottle triple blind taste test with Simple Malt IPA and Cascade Plus IPA. This is my favorite of all three quite like the dogfish 60 minute I’ve tried. Soapy aroma, malts, citrus and extreme hops. Taste is so bitter its peppery, sharp bitterness fits like a glove.

Dec 11, 2008 Bottle at Volo. Pours dark amber with a large, long lasting head. There is grapefruit in the aroma, some toffee, grass. This is nicely balanced between the caramel in the malt and piney hops with and a bit of citrus. The hops are not overwhelming, maybe a gesture to European style IPAs.

Mar 16, 2009 12oz bottle from Belmont Station in Portland. Pours a deep amber with a moderate sized amber head. Very grassy aroma with a decided hint of apple as well. Nice apple and pine hop taste as well with a decidedly bitter and spicy finish. Quite enjoyable, now I need to pick up a Peche Mortel.
