May 16, 2009 07 bottle courtesy Blutt59. Reddish brown pour with a thick tan head. Big hop dominant aroma with hints of smoke and caramel. Thick mouth feel with lots of malt, but grapefruit style hops are still very dominant after two years. Bitterness has dyed down a little, seems like the perfect time to drink this.

Dec 27, 2008 Bright amber with small white head. Aroma of flowers, hops, malt. Nice bitter flavor throughout, especially apparent in the finish. Like an IPA but darker and more mellow. A winner.
