Commercial Description:
English in style, it is “monster-hopped,” with English malts plus a special honey malt from Canada, Target and Kent Goldings hops added five times during the brewing process. This orange-amber ale is strong in both flavor and alcohol!

Poured on cask, so a bit different from other descriptions. Murky amber with small foamy off-white head. Very hoppy, citric, and nicely bitter. Great beer on cask. Imagine the non-cask isn’t as impressive.

Pours a copper color with a white head. Aroma is crystal malt, toast, and floral hops. Flavor is crystal malt, some toast, and a bitter slightly earthy floral finish.

On tap at Jack of the Wood. Nice grassy hoppy aroma with soe apricot and citrus rind fruity character. Light malt sweetness and touch of caramel. Miedium orange-amber clear with light haze and foamy lacing head. Medium watery body with heavy carbonation. Fizzy. Starts with medium sweet malt character and grassy hop taste that turns bitter pretty quick. Strong bitter finish to this one with lingering bitter after.

On draft at Jack of the Wood, Asheville. Poured deep amber with eggshell white head. Plenty of lace. Sweet and malty with plenty of resinous pine and grapefruit flavor. Nice IPA.

At least I assume I have the right IPA. It was on cask at the brewery, and the beertender told me it was the normal IPA with minor additions when it is casked. I am rating it high because it is the best cask ale I have had in the US. I miss the heck out of real ale and this guy is really trying to get it right, and coming very close.
