on tap. pours muddy amber with thin off white head. aroma of grapefruit, tropical fruits, floral, and as it warmed slightly manuer. flavor is really bitter, grapefruit, citrus, slightly acidic. pretty one dimensional and lacks finese. watery to medium body. over carbonated. how is this not listed as an IPA, its pretty high in alcohol and bitter as hell.

May 28, 2008 On tap at Piece. Poured hazy deep yellowy-brown with a short, creamy beige head. The aroma found fresh, ripe darker fruits and caramel sweetness with pine, peppery spices, and citrus notes surrounding.. sweeter overall and well-balanced. The flavor had a warm fruity sweetness with caramel at the core.. heavy bitterness surrounded, mostly in the form of fruit with lesser herbal and earthy notes).. engaging and again, well-balanced throughout.. left a long impression on the finish. Medium-bodied with a grainy, tacky texture that left no taste bud untouched.. moderate carbonation. Very solid brew!

May 24, 2008 Whoa whoa whoa! One of the best hoppy ales I have had in quite some time. Very spicy, hoppy and full of great flavors like cinnamon. I can drink this by the growler and relish every drop. If you stop in Piece make sure you pick this bad boy up!

May 19, 2008 Tasted 4/30/08. Part ! of the sampler. Hazy and amber hued. Off-white head. Bright crisp nose. Lime and melon. Medium bodied with a bright crisp palate. Tight hops. Hop dominant. Sugary citrus candy and grapefruit hop palate. Tart tight and rolling flavors. Tingling effervescence. Delicious with a great hop palate. Solid pizza beer!

does not count  May 19, 2008 I’ve drank a multitude of pale ales and IPA’s. This could easily be taken as an IPA. It tastes better than any IPA I’ve had or American Pale Ale. The resiny hop character did not overwhelm the malt base and they worked perfect together. Keep brewing this beer.
