Massive thanks to dkachur for this totally unexpected surprise! Medium orange, hint of copper, nice tan head faded slowly, quite clear. Aroma was a nice mix of gummy grapefruit, pine, earthy notes. Flavor matched, with the faintest roasty note in the back of the biscuit accented hops. Alcohol stood out just a bit in this one. All in all, a solid IPA.

Oct 6, 2008 The standard to which IPA brewers should aspire to. I’ve never been a huge fan of IPA’s (thanks for you Alexander Keith!), but this was very pleasant in every regard and I am now interested in trying other IPA’s far more than before. Hope you guys like hoppy beers, wow.
