Sep 22, 2002 Copper body, ok head. Fresh grapefruit aroma. Flavor is solid grapefruit, but not a hop bomb. Limited sweetness, good flavor from tip of tongue to the back of the throat. Good stuff.

Aug 11, 2007 Growler acquired in trade with mreusch (thanks!). Poured a medium amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of pine, citrus and caramel. Tastes follow suit. Ligthly bitter with a medium sweetness. Not a ’typical’ American IPA, but drinkable none the less.

May 1, 2008 Growler... DLD’08... Clear copper ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Fantastic retention. The nose is a mishmash of caramel and earthy, piney lupulin. Medium-bodied with soft carbonation. Watery, thin flavor with subdued caramel. Crisp, balanced finish. Kudos to someone in the Kansas contingent - aka my roommates at DLD’08 - for the sample... maybe csbosox?

Apr 29, 2003 Dark amber with a moderate off white head. Cascade/grapefruit/pine aromas with a touch of malt in the background. Light sweetness again with the cascade hops taking back the flavors. A cross from an IPA and APA.
