Sep 6, 2008 On tap at Isaac Newtons. Deep amber color with nice tight white head and nice lacing. Aroma was hops and bread dough. Well balanced taste with sweet and bready malts that paired well with a nice dose of earthy and bittering hops. Full body and very smooth, very drinkable. I love IPA’s and this was a delight to drink without being too over the top with hops (not that there is anything wrong with that!).

Aug 30, 2008 12 oz bottle from Charleston’s (New Lenox, IL) poured into a tulip-esque glass. This beer dissappointed a lot. Aromas were weak, with very little hop and sweet malt presence, but a had a very pretty dark amber, almost brown, hazed body with a decent head. Initial is not very hoppy at all, touches of citrus and bitterness dance around a bit, but the malt mainly takes the stage.. and not a very good malt profile at that. Finishes smooth but lacking the body and hop presence I hoped for. Dissappointing, and hopefully a bad batch or something.

Aug 24, 2008 Pours a very hazy brown color with a nice fluffy off-white head. Aroma is really faint, rather fresh, with some caramel malt and maybe a grainy scent. Sweet caramel malty flavor with some bitter fruity hops following. Not necessarily an in your face aggressive hoppy kind of IPA but nicely balanced and well-rounded.

Aug 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours orange with a yellow head. Sweet hoppy aroma with caramel, orange, and candy sugar. Flavor is a bit more bitter than the aroma with more floral and grassy hops. Nice.
