This was a great deal direct from Flossmoor. It must have been bottled not long ago because it tasted as if it had come directly from a tap. Once again Flossmoor has done a great job of a fall IPA. I could drink more of this easily.

Aroma / Appearance - Amber brown and radiant the faint white head shined under the afternoon sun. Grapefruit, citrus, malts, and pine shock the senses into paying attention. Everything works with the other components.

Flavor / Palate - Grassy citrus tones warm the mouth from the start. A malty aftertaste comes along with the smooth bitterness. Fresh and crisp this has a nice blend of hops and sweetness that draw you in. The only problem I would face is what to do once it was gone.

Hazy orange pour with moderate white head. Nose is big pine, fruity citrus, crystal malt, and whiffs of alcohol. Big alcohol flavor, along with the significant hop bite and nicely balanced crystal mlat sweetness. An all around winner of a harvest-type IPA!

22 oz bomber with olive green wax. Pours a murky gray golden honey with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is buttery with hints of bitter hops and citrus. Taste of bitter hops, citrus with a buttery flavor.

Bottle from Binny’s (nee Sam’s) Clybourn. IPA #100. Pours a sticky coppery brown with slick head. Nose is funky Chinook with a slice of sweet orange from the Ahtanum and some dust. On taste, pretty good. Big bitterness, distinct wet hops smoothness with the expected missing floral punch. Nice and crisp and big. Can’t complain one bit, though it’s not a huge standout. Still, pretty damn tasty.

Bottle… October ’09 O-Town Throwdown… Hazed golden ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Musky, earthy aroma. Medium-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and nearly expired carbonation. Sweet up front; followed by alcohol and hop bitterness. Novocain-like, sweet-ish finish. Bottle provided by SoLan!

Bottle. Pours cloudy orange/copper with a big off-white head. Piney hop nose with some orange and sweet malt. Orangy and piney hop flavor with a touch of malt before a bitter grapefruit finish. Very good stuff.
