May 25, 2003 Had this on tap at the Mellow Mushroom in Chattanooga. Light orange in appearance. Absolutely no head to it - or a discernible aroma. Hops were not very apparent. It had an odd mouthfeel to it - does not taste or feel like an IPA at all. More malt than hops - an odd take on an IPA.

Nov 12, 2002 More of a British style IPA than the West Coast styles we might be used to. Nice hop bite, and a smooth mellow flavor. This brewery seems to be steadily improving, and they had some wonderful seasonal offerings - Smoky the Beer, a smoked porter; and this year’s tasty (and potent) harvest ale. Definately worth a try if you are ever in the East Tennessee area.

Jun 5, 2002 Light aroma. Peaty, a tad smokey and red malt bittered. It is indeed dry, and bitter on the backend. Lingering red malt palate.

Mar 11, 2003 Good colour, with a nice hoppy nose. Decent taste, but slightly malty, which addds some complexity to the overall beer.

Mar 19, 2003 Updated: Dec 3, 2003More a British style IPA with more malt present. Good head and appearance. Hoppy taste but not overdone. As this is probably the closest microbrew to me, I must say I am impressed.

Mar 23, 2003 A bit different than I expected, but a nice surprise. Spoiled by midwest hop-addict Dr. Feelgoods like Three Floyds and Bells, I totally expect all IPAs to be huge and hoppy, but this one was subtle and soft, malty and sweet, saving the dry bitter send-off until the tail end. More balanced as it warmed, this was a nice mug of beer. (Make sure to tell your waiter to warm the glass, otherwise it shows up covered in ice!)

Aug 19, 2003 A very nice look. Deep copper color with a great lingering head. Not much out of the aroma and the hops is lacking. I expected more after the pour. But not bad since it's local.
