Now called BAD DOG IPA under the brewer's new Big Dog Brewing Co. moniker. Awesome caramel with gigantic head. Flowery nose and full-on hop flavors, grapefruit sour. No bittering end, and though I never thought I'd say this, I think the hops here are almost overpowering.

Amber with lasting head.Good hop nose. Massive lasting citrus hop flavor, but lacks balance. Great Belgian lace

Arizona Beer Fest 03/23/02: Pours a nice amber color, off white head, fair lace. Big hop floral nose, malts under tones. Front is malt, the middle light to medium, the finish is slightly acidic, big hop bite, crisp and leaves a bitter twang in your mouth, a good IPA to be sure.

Equally as hoppy as the pale ale, but a bit more creamy in the finish. Not bad, but not that good either.
