Jul 14, 2008 Courtesy dchmela. Pours an amber orange color, with a small off white head. The aroma is a rich mix of hops, citrus, malt, and cinnamon spice. The flavor is pretty big on the hops. There was some traces of malt for balance, but the hops seemed to dominate in a bold way. Big hop bitterness in the finish with traces of grapefruit citrus for some added flavor. Pretty solid IIPA.

Jul 11, 2008 Poured a hazy caramel color with a small, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, caramel malts, citrus fruits, floral hops, and some tropical fruits. Taste was sweeter, with the caramel up front, orange peel, citrus fruits, pine, tobacco, and a bitter finish, with a little alcohol there as well.

Jul 10, 2008 Thanks to hopdog for sharing this one. Pours a lightly hazy copper with golden notes and a medium bubbly/creamy off white head that left some lacing. Aroma was the bowl of those hard candies your grandmom had sitting out, hop candy, sweet caramel malt, light alcohol, tropical fruits, mixed citrus, lots of American hops. Flavor was earthy, pine, grapefruit, orange, caramel, nice hop bitterness, toasted malt, toffee, lots of fresh hop flavor,
