This was a great surprise. The first time I tried this beer, I was pleasently surprised to the aroma when I opened it. It was strong but not pungent. Then when I tasted it, I was a slap in the face with Hops style IPA!!!! Truely enjoyed it!!!

Semi-cloudy pumpkin orange. Nice color, no head. Dark earthy malt with a flowery and grapefruit hop aroma. Roasted rye-like malt balance. Really great scent. Toasted caramel taste. Burnt rye malts; almost stout-like. Decent, flowery hops. Thick and with a little fizz. A good, burnt flavor.

on tap-pours an off white lumpy head and hazy gold color. Aroma is citrus hops, medium malt. Taste is citrus hops-some bitter, medium malt, taste follows aroma. OK/mild carbonation. rerate -12oz bottle -much crisper and with more hop bite than the one I had on tap at the brewpub. Nice.

Pours amber into a shaker. Offwhite head with medium retention. Pine and resin aromas. Full bodied with piney hops from front to back. Dry finish.

Bottle purchased at Gordon’s in New London. Pours clear golden orange, white head. Aroma is very hoppy (tangerine, grapefruit, and kiwi), and I love it! Flavor is crisp and bitter citrus hoppy, some notes of pear and vanilla, but not super sweet and cloying. This is a good IPA. What a happy find in New London, CT!

Solid brew from a growler. Pours a nice amber with fast fading head. Aroma is good grassy and citrus hops. Flavor had a great citrus bite, grapefruit, and finished very grassy dry, nice combo.

Draught, Redbones
Golden, bright. Earthier, English aroma with some caramel. Crisp, but with a sweetish finish. Herbaceous hops and biscuits, slightly toasty malts. Nicely balanced with a pleasing dry finish.
