Overall: Very impressive. Agree with the comparison to Stone AB. Wish I had bought more of this.

22 oz bottle pours a hazed copper brown body with a medium khaki head. Aroma of malty caramel opens but is quickly eclipsed by a ton of hops-pine, spiciness, and citrusy grapefruit and orange. Medium body is creamy, with moderate carbonation. Taste has some bold hopping. Grapefruit and pine lead the way, with spicy notes and some blood orange. Solid malt backbone of brown sugar and caramel. Similar to Stone’s Arrogant Bastard in a lot of ways. Nice effort.

Balance. This is a beer that has it. Good hop experience but malt flavor is also there, i was looking for a hoppy beer and this seemed to meet the search but also has a nice malt taste. Good beer. If you are a hophead it will satisfy you, and if you like matly beer it probably will like it as well. Pours a nice deep copper color, aroma was hoppy, head was about mediun. Good mix of hops and malt.

Hazy dark brown with a tall, choppy tan head. Malty aroma is full of fruit, some raisins, with just a touch of citrus from the hops. Sweet fruity flavor delivered with a full body.

Picked this 22 oz. at Greens Buford Highway. Nice dark brown slightly ruby in color. Nice off-white tan head. Looks like a good beer. Has a nice hop aroma. Slight malt aroma. Beer has average texture. Bitter, but not very malty. Has a nice hop flavor, but there could always be more.

got at the good ole belmont station... seems more hoppy than the ibu stated..nice caramelly malt flavor with a good amount of citrusy hops to balance....good head retention

Dark mahogany color with a medium off-white head leaving some lacing behind. Big hopped up nose, spicy and citrusy hops, lots of sweetness to it. Flavor has underlying chocolate, soft of chocolate covered cherry note to the finish. Caramel and citrus from the hops make a nice blend. Finish is bitter, maybe a touch to much, but still the malt sweetness cut through a bit keeping it from being to sharp of a bitterness.

Aroma is strong and rather hoppy, but not fiercely so, with a subtle fruity undertone. It pours a clear dark coppery amber with a fairly thick, slightly yellow beige head. Flavor is hoppy but not too bitter, and has a firm undertone of orange. Texture is thick, smooth and fizzy, leaving a hop-bitter aftertaste.
