Feb 18, 2009 On tap @ E. J. Phair in C-town. Pours a brilliant clear copper with lasting thin white head and impressive sheet lacing clinging to the glass. The modest aroma of sweet malts and grassy-piny hops is noticed covering up a meek amount of sugar sweet malts and faint caramelization. The taste begins with rich malty goodness. The malts are immediately attacked by a gale force storm of hops starting with pine then moving to crisp fresh green and grassy. It almost seems wet hopped. By midway I get a nice dose of grapefruit hops joining the fray. A malty sweet backbone is resistant to the mountain of hops and retains a precarious foot hold on the flavor. It ends with malt sweetness, hints of caramelization and a hop bite that is finally beginning to give in and eventually fade away. Fantastic brew! It could however use a bigger aromatic presence.

Feb 9, 2009 Great malt. Balanced for a DIPA. The bitterness is very harsh though. 14 beers into the Bistro’s DIPA fest, ratings blurry.

Feb 7, 2009 Tap at Bistros DIPA event. Reddish amber color with a slight off-white head. Very floral aroma. Full bodied with creamy carbonation. Flavor is more floral hop over roasted caramel. Not so bitter, but with time some creeps out in the finish. Really smooth and tasty.
