Mar 13, 2009 Draft, Newark location. I’ve sure missed this place since relocating to Florida. Rich copper body, small beige head. The beer is strong and hoppy, with just enough doughy sweetness to hold it all together. Great match for the chipotle wings. Sure makes me homesick!

Jan 17, 2009 Draft at Newark. Poured an amber-red color with a nice generous off-white (orange hues) head, solid lacing all the way down. The aroma was orangey fruity, citrus, woodsy. The flavor was firm hoppiness, spices and woodsy notes, bittering hops quite strong, firm malt backbone, orange flavors with floral hops too. Kinda like a stronger SN Celebration Ale with less complexity. Decent stuff.

Dec 21, 2008 On Tap @ Newark-Seemed more like an APA than an IPA to me, & not a very good one @ that. Strong hop aroma & a copper colored pour. Overwhelming hop flavor on the front end, not a whole lot else to balance it out. I sure didn’t taste any malt in this at all. Thin, watery mouthfeel; this was a pretty boring brew. Long hop finish, I doubt I would drink this again.

Dec 17, 2008 On tap at Newark Brewery. Poured red in color with nice white head. Aroma was weak with little spice and hop. Taste was well balnced and a nice bitterness with spice. Finished smooth with a nice alcohol warming. Very nice holiday beer.

Sep 1, 2007 Had this in Media Winter 2006. Draught: Bitter aroma. Smelled of hops, citrus, grapefruit, and some floral notes. Poured amber in color with a large, frothy, creamy, off-white head . Great lacing. Clear. Flavor was light to medium bitter. Tasted hoppy and malty, as well as herbal, with notes of floral and citrus hops, and light spice. Lively carbonation. An easy drink. Seemed like more of an APA than an IPA to me.
