Nov 17, 2005 Tap; huge hoppy aroma, bitter, sweet, somewhat grapefruity. Nice white rocky head, and lacing as well. Hops are the key to this brewery i’m finding, great bitterness from start to finish. A little less malt and more balance is what we need here. Excellent brew none the less

Jul 5, 2005 Tap: world beer expo/Frankenmuth...amber with little white head. Big hop aroma all mixed up, pine,floral and citrus. Initial flavor is caramel/malt but turns to all bitter/sticky hops with a long lingering aftertaste. Will agree needed a little more malt for an IIPA, was still very good overall though.

May 23, 2005 On tap: Pretty big hop aroma with a touch of sweetness. Mostly transparent amber with a touch of haze and a small off-white head. A touch of caramel up front is quickly dominated by a big grapefruit hop finish. Hoppy aftertaste lingers for some time. Not the most balanced IIPA.

May 23, 2005 Festival tap. Hazy brown colored with a scant off-white head. Big floral hop aroma with a bit of citrus. Served a bit cold. Medium bodied. Lasting hop bitterness. Modest malt bill barely stands up to the hop assault. Decent, a bit more balance would make this a contender.
