Sep 15, 2008 First beer from this brewery thanks to Sparky27. Nice 14 karat golden pour with a small eggshell head. Definitely not your typical IPA...much sweeter and yeastier than I would have expected. Begins buttermilk biscuit covered in honey and ends with a citrus/pine wallop. A very interesting brew...would definitely be interested in some of their others. THANKS ERIC!!!

Sep 5, 2008 This does not taste or smell like an IPA. First smell is yeast, then the malts, then the hops. The appearance is nice tho, golden copper with a thin, off-white head that stays thin the whole way. Flavor is well balanced of yeast, malts and very little citrus and pine hops. Palate is nice...smooth with a slight bitterness to it. Overall its hard to rate because its not a typical IPA.

Aug 30, 2008 Bottle: Poured amber with a small fluffy head. Aroma was sweet/malt with hops as well. There is also some citris as well. Malt taste followed strongly woth a bitter hop. Thepine snese sits inmy nose for awhile. There is more then adequte lacing. IPA’s are not my Fav., but this is enjoyable and well made with good balance

Aug 29, 2008 Wow, this pours a slightly cloudy very nice caramel color. Head is not that thick but rather creamy looking. Intense bitter hops notes in the flavor upfront that fade away to a mild sweetness. Aroma is basically a straight up floral hops. This is pretty much a nice beer, with nothing to outstanding though.

Aug 15, 2008 12oz from the Cellah, I was just in Maine give me a break. Shared with Cyn, Pours orange with a bright white ring. Nose is sweet and hopped with some nice malt balance. The taste is really nicely sweet and malty, this is a tasty beer, not sure if I think its an IPA though.

Aug 15, 2008 Pours a hazy golden amber color. Thin white head with moderate retention and good lacing. Aroma is strong piney hops and some sweet citrus. Slightly astringent flavor with floral hops with light maltiness. Medium mouthfeel with a bitter and lasting dry finish. A decent IPA, but nothing spectacular.
However, if you get a chance, don’t pass up the cask conditioned version of this one--it is phenomenal. Very smooth drinking with lots of floral hops. Great for IPA fans.

Aug 15, 2008 12 oz bottle.Poured a cloudy red- brown with a thin white head. I liked the piny hoppy nose.The flavor that followed was similar. The mouthful was medium with a balanced malt to it,and a nice slightly bitter finish. Very drinkable.
