Mar 17, 2008 Pours a dakr nut brown with a thick head that thins out but never fades. The nose is of bitter hops and amber malt. The flavor is very malty with lots of grain, yet there was still a nice bitterness that made the brew enjoyable. There was some woody after taste flavor but nothing really intence. The booze was not well hidden in this but still refreshing to the palate.

Mar 17, 2008 From a 12 fl. oz. US) can with a lot code of 6 09 13A1 B A.. Pours an amber-brown with a puffy beige head that stays on top of the glass for much of the session. Overpowering aroma of hops and subtle sweetness combined. Taste is extremely hoppy. Whew, this stuff packs a punch too and you don’t notice the alcohol until your head is spinning. Very good.

Mar 15, 2008 Amber with a thin off white head. Aroma is malty, with caramel, maple, and a light alcohol sweetness. Taste is a nice hoppiness followed by caramel, and crystal malt and a very light alcohol warming.

Mar 13, 2008 Can from Vintage Cellar. Aromas of pine and floral hop. Copper/amber color with a decent off-white head. Very smooth, near creamy, carbonation. Seems about medium in body. Lightly roasted caramel malts nicely balanced by lots of hop. Not harsh, just good. Leaves a bit of tingle behind. The finish balance is fairly dry, and the hop keeps on. Nicely bitter.

Mar 13, 2008 On draft at Oskar Blues brewpub. A tasty brew, albeit a little all over the place. A fair earthy dose put into the hop profile, but the sweet malty undertones seem to take the lead here. Some sweet fruity notes behind it. I suppose I was expected more of a hop forward double ipa type brew after seeing the tap handle - now after reading the description, maybe this was what they were going for all along. Nonetheless, while I enjoyed it, it wasn’t ’wow’- ing me over...
