May 28, 2009 Auburn pour with a nice fluffy head and good lace. Nose of citrus hops, some fruity notes, brown sugar, and sweeter malts. The flavor is initially a burst of citrus hops followed by notes of brown sugar, honey, caramel, juniper appears in there, as it is all brought together by a resiny pine finish. Really nice drinker. Not overly bitter, but well put together and enjoyable.

May 25, 2009 Thanks to tasting group for the share. Pours copper-amber with an off-white head. Nose is malt, pine, and some hints of red grapefruit. Flavor is caramel, pine, and a nice hop punch. Finish lingers with malty pine. Very enjoyable and lots of malt.

May 23, 2009 bottled the fourth week of november 2008. sampled fourth week of april 2009 via psprings.
pours a dark rich copper color and fairly clear with a substantial pale tan head which deposits a bunch of foam on the glass.
the nose is dry, spicy and has an alcohol numbing quality... aromas of brown sugar, toasty grain, some sort of citrus and sweet woody pine... juniper for sure.
the palate is barely sweet by iipa standards and nothing really stands out except that it clicks!... something is really good in here! it is dry, spicy and clean with flavors matched by the aroma. a bitter finish leaves a bunch of brown sugary malt in the aftertaste.
the medium body is terribly easy to drink = not sticky or sweet!

May 21, 2009 A- Pours a ruddy amber hue with a big, chunky, reddish brown head.
S- LOTS of piney hops and very distinct juniper berries.
T- Starts bready and immediately moves into deep juniper and pine notes. Very distinct and interesting.
M- Medium to full bodied with medium carbonation.
D- This was an interesting one to try but i’m just not a huge fan of juniper berries and that was such a huge part of the brew it was hard to ignore.

May 20, 2009 Bottle. Dark amber beer with a thin egg-shell head. Nice hoppy nose. Flavor is pure IPA, earthy, grassy, citrusy. Great hop profiles with mild bitterness. Clean dry finish. Good.

May 15, 2009 I really enjoyed this brew. Nice hoppy IPA with great thicker flavor. Aroma of citrus hops along with the juniper berries. Couldn’t really taste the juniper in the flavor, which is probable preferred. Good body. Tasty stuff.
