Hazy orange with big head and cascadey citrusy grapefruit aroma. Taste is the same with a sweet interplay of rich malt, caramel, and slightly hot alcohol . $9/750

Jan 1, 2010 not sure if the aroma was off due to an odd bottle, but it seemed to have something chemical like going on. The appearance was cloudy amber with nice deep hop notes. The finish was bitter and dry and had a long time in the finish.

Dec 30, 2009 Interesting brew. Complex nose hints at various reminiscences, from body odor to fresh rubber. Finish is slightly sweeter than necessary, especially for a supposed IPA. Becomes more settled and blended as it attenuates in the glass. Not bad, but nothing genuinely good, either.

Dec 30, 2009 Clear amber color/ frothy beige head. Nice floral, spicy hop, earthy yeast aromas. Medium body with a velvety smooth mouthfeel. Big spicy floral pine hop, yeasty nutty flavors on a solid caramel malty base. very good.

Dec 28, 2009 750mL shared. Pours a clear (?) light amber sort of orange with a thick, yellow head that has good retention and some spotty lacing. Aroma is a bit off: chemicals, big kumquat, spices, Cointreau. Taste is like I just ingested some Bath and Body Works Satsuma air freshener. Somehow this beer is a bit cloying though it has some intense bitterness and perfume qualities. Wasn’t stale: no nutty spiciness and strawberry cheesecake. Just chemicals, kumquats, cloying, and satsuma air freshener. Vomit.

Dec 27, 2009 Bottle at Chriso’s Kook Tasting 09. Thanks Chris. Lovely aroma. Gold colour, amber, slight haze. Lasting beige head. Too sweet in the mouth. The finish is not hoppy and not bitter enough for me. Too sweet overall.

Dec 26, 2009 Very tasty and balanced. Nice hop aroma and not too bitter. It’s delicious but can be a little cloying. Definitely not a session beer.
