Can. pours opaque copper amber color forming an impressive long lasting frothy off white head. Aroma is a fruity blend of exotic fruit and citrus with a subtle suga cane malt. Starts spicey sweet with light carmel undertone balace; then lends way to a bitter grapefruit taste that finishes dry. Love the can!

Orangish pour. The aroma is really nice. Fruity and hoppy. A good dose of floral and citrus hops on the tongue with a really good caramel backbone. Clean and tasty.

12oz can. Cloudy orange/copper pour with a thin beige head. Piney and citrusy hop nose with some sweet malt. Grapefruit and pine flavor up front with sweet malt in the middle before a bitter earthy finish.

Pours a lightly hazy copper color - soapy, clinging lace - herbal, peppery hops in the nose, with some bright fruitiness and moderate caramel malt base - the flavor has an initial spicy hop kick, followed by medium sweet caramel - this is followed by a very bright, vibrant fruity character, grapefruit tang, a second blast of hops - fairly earthy - pretty tasty.

Clear amber with a fleeting head. Piney hoppy aromas. Medium body. Floral and pine hop twang flavors on a sweet caramel malty base. Nice.

Sampled at Flying Saucer’s Second Annual Fall Beer Festival in Austin on October 24, 2009. Clear amber orange, light flavor and mouthfeel. Goodly IPA, and thin in the mouth. Easy drinking, loads of fun, good to get drunk on! I’m sober, honest.

12oz Can, Pours darkish gold, big resin hop aroma, Columbus, Amarillo hop profile, a bit skunky in a good way, garlic notes as well. Hops up front in the flavor with a decent malt backbone to support the hops. Nice job! I’ve had this in the bottle before and cans seem much brighter and fresher. $9.99/6pk at Hops & Vines, Asheville, NC.
