Jul 12, 2008 Amber colored. Aroma is grapefruit, citrus, peach. Maybe Bavarian hops here? Maybe I just lost my mind? Either way, it’s a nice twist. Medium bodied, moderate to full bitterness.

May 27, 2008 Drunk while standing up. Then we got a table. Bitter. Hoppy. Went down well. Someone else ordered something I looked down upon. I was happy with this one.

May 21, 2008 Apples and green raisons on the nose with hints of pine. Pours cloudy ambe with a thick white head. Very very bitter, some apple skins,not really any citrus or pine flavors just straight up bitter. There are some sweet malts in there too. It is a very enjoyable IPA.

May 20, 2008 Strong floral, grassy, toasted grain and resin aroma. Overly bitter. Not quite balanced. A sharp, lingering bitterness at that. Nice copper appearance with a quickly diminishing head.

May 19, 2008 smells a little sugary with a slight aroma of hops and fruit. cloudy and opaque dark orange and brown. looks very fizzy as well. has the appearance of spiced apple cider. hmm flavor is difficult to describe. the aroma of the brew is not indicative of its flavor. its definitely malty, but the flavor is also very fleeting and is conquered by the powerful hops and bitterness in this beer. thankfully, i like beer that is done this way. however for those whose favorite beers are mild or sweet, this is not recommended. Very hoppy and delcious. not very balanced though.

May 10, 2008 A darn good American IPA. Hoppy, but not too grapefruity. Just like I like it. Good lacing, nice orange-gold color, and good body. It’s one that I can always go back to!

May 2, 2008 Pours dark copper, with perfect clarity and zero haze. A lively, two inch, rocky off-white head crests the rim of the glass. After several minutes of sustaining, the foam of medium to thick density slowly fell to a skim coat, revealing frothy lacework of cutains and rings. Looks great.
Aromatics are floral and fruity. Not screamingly pungent, but exuding a lively, juicy freshness.
Right up front is a earthy, ripe pear note, followed by mango and peach fuzz. Tropical to say the least, and supported by a mild, doughy, malt character.
The mouthfeel is crisp and juicy. Carbonation is lively and scrubbs the tongue.
The pallet is laden with citrusy hops and a firm-handed bitterness.
Drying while juicy and resinous. Slightly puckering from the zesty, tart, fruit pith essence. Tangerine, pink grapefruit, pineapple, and a suggestion of spruce bark.
Finishes with lingering bitterness, fading fruits, and a warming promise.
No date on the bottle, but pretty damn fresh from Liquid solutions.

Apr 27, 2008 3/22/08 On tap at the Cask Festival. Aroma is sweet pissy candy, although that combo is not as bad as it sounds, believe it or not. Appearance is hazy gold with no head. Flavor is guava-like, sour and uncomfortably funky. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with an acrid finish. Overall, ugh.
