22 oz bomber from Market of Choice. Hazy orange pour with a big, thick white head. Nose was hefty with caramel malt with a bit of citrus fruit tossed in. Flavor much the same, a little too overbalanced towards the maltiness for me, and the hops seemed far too muted for the style. Mediocre offering, a huge disappointment after their tasty fresh hop brew.

Dec 30, 2009 Not tongue crushing bitter - so if you get an old bottle, I can see it not being good. But this was a fresh one, and as a result there were some terrific aromatics in it! Very crisp on the palate and floral in the nose. Lots of grass, hay and seed notes. Finishes clean.

Dec 12, 2009 Bottle. Pours light amber with a frothy off-white head. Strong resin aroma. Medium body; mild carbonation Flavor is quite bitter. IBU 40? Seems like more. Good bitter finish.

Aug 17, 2009 Very nice smelling and looking beer, but looks, and apparently smells can be deceiving. Pretty coarse and unbalanced in its bitterness. Nothing special here.

Jul 29, 2009 Bomber. Poured cloudy orange with thick foamy white head. Lots of lacing. Faint piney and citrusy head. Rather weak flavour, not full like an IPA. Flavour not unpleasant, just not enough of it. Weak finish.

Jul 16, 2009 Amber color with a white head. Pretty decent IPA overall, not a fan of the initial malts up front, enjoyed the citrusy grapefruit hops at the end.

May 30, 2009 Sampled in a 22. A pretty goo brew. Pour medium brown but still see through able. Thin head that lingers. Drinks crisp. Nice smooth hops. A nice brew!

Apr 18, 2009 From a 22 oz bottle this poured an ever so slightly hazy light orange with a very robust white head and good rich lacing rings. Nose is floral, pine, and citrus hops on top of a caramel malt backbone. Very slick mouthfeel. Flavor is bitter with citrus hops dominating. The finish is bitter and the final mouthfeel is slick and nicely bitter.. Overall a very well made and highly drinkable IPA.
