Bottle courtesy of stfun. Pours copper with a white head. Smells earthy and resiny with some touches of caramel and dough. Tastes spicy with some mild bitter touches. Hints of citrus and some dry malt is also there. Finishes bitter.

Need to try again, the bottle seemed skunked. From what I had, I was really let down. Would love to include on some trades as a bonus because of the name, but, man was it ever dry and bitter.

Pours cloudy and orange with fluffy white head and nice lacing. Citrus hops aroma. Sweet Malts and hops with a bitter finish. A little watery however very drinkable

12oz bottle from Chalet Party Shoppe, Goshen, IN. Cloudy orange with large creamy white head. Slight spicy hops with some citrus, dry malt, slight lemon. Noble, citrus, grapefruit hop flavor with toffee, perfumy, slight dough in the finish, I wish it were hoppier but not bad. Nice creamy full body. Nice until that perfume flavor came out.

12 oz Bottle - Pours a golden orange with nice white head. Everyone says its too carbonated, it is pretty cabonated, but - I think it adds to it - makes it unique and refreshing. Aroma is pine, hops, grapefruit, citrus, etc... Flavor is the same, although a bit more sub-dued - but good. Don’t know exactly why everyone is so down on this brew - it’s supposed to be a lighter and highly drinkable IPA for a normal bar patron - not necessarily a IPA elitest fanatic (not an insult - I consider myself one)! I think it achieves at the modest task which is its charge. If you are looking for big hops and big IBU bitterness try Mishawaka’s "Hophead."

from my big fat party pak haul: Pale golden, big fizzy white head quickly diminished. Aroma was lightly sweet with hint of hops. Taste had a bit more hop to it, but was mostly malty and fairly thin and filled with prickly carbonation. Finished with a weird sawdust dry feel.

clear gold, huge white head, lots of visible carbonation, sweet malt aroma with lots of fruity and citrus hops, dry crystal malt flavor, sweet citrus hops, long bitter finish, flavor is a bit of a letdown from the aroma,

Golden pour with a slight yellow head. Aroma is of grass, grain and very light floral hops. Bitter up front, slightly sour. High carbonation. Orange and grapefruit dominate the middle into the finish. Pretty rough overall but an extra point for having my home state on the bottle.
