On tap at the Landmark Inn. Red amber color with a small but creamy head. Sweet malt aroma with peaches and pears bolstering the malt. Flavor is sweet and spicy malt with a sweetness of fruit and brown sugar. Nice herbal bitterness in the finish as well. This is a really good, satisfying beer if you have the money for it.

Nov 30, 2008 Orange color. Typical imperial IPA taste except I noted a hint of banana. A very good imperial IPA, but not the best.

Nov 30, 2008 Bottle, consumed about a month after bottling. Aroma of bready, almost doughy malt, and an odd concoction of hops, floral, perfumy, grassy, maybe some woodsy spiciness in there. Flavor gets rather unpleasant with the odd, semi-spicy, semi-floral hops not meshing well at all with the intensely bready malt. Just didn’t agree with me, though I know I’m in the minority.

does not count  Nov 28, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Tons of floral hop notes in the aroma. Nearly no head, just a ring of white bubbles around the perimeter of the glass. Appearance is clear with a lovely dark orange color. Long finish with a strong bitterness of grapefruit. Excellent IPA.

Nov 27, 2008 Bottle. Golden with white head. Fruitish hop aroma with some cabbage, apricot and resin. Very oily, almost like syrup. Bitter but also very sweet flavour. A bit to oily and sweet, but still very good.

Nov 27, 2008 A nearly perfect IPA. It smelt incredible, and the flavor was almost just as good. Maybe a little too bitter? That’s about all I can find to say that’s bad about it.
