Aug 2, 2009 good hops, but they are a bit harsh. there isn’t a whole lot of complexity, just bitter and dry hopped flavor. this just didn’t stand out, i liked the hops, but it was nothing special.

Jul 21, 2009 Sold pour on tap at home from a 1/6th barrel. the head is tall and strong: probably a product of the freshness on the keg.
the aroma is hoppy and slightly sweet, though not overpowering. balanced if I might add. the color is a deep, cloudy, amber hue.
the flavor is immeadiately hoppy with a balancing malt backbone. some grapefruit, but more on the bitter side. the beer is smooth and balanced. plenty of mouth feel here.
overall, this beer is well worth picking up on draught the next time you get.

Jul 8, 2009 bottle, pours a murky blond/amber with a medium white head. Aroma is grapefruit and hops with some sugar. Sweet malt, sweet/sour, and bitter hops. Really nice and drinkable with a variety of hop characteristics in the finish. Not bombarded by bitter which is nice. I like.

Jul 4, 2009 Draught. Beautiful dark amber body, decent lace, good white head. Sweet grapefruit hop nose, not quite pine but close. Nice hoppy bite in the flavor again citric and almost resiny, with a moderate caramel body. Smooth oily texture with a solidly weighted body, wonderfully reminiscent of lupulin. Great with spicy food.

Jul 3, 2009 Updated: Aug 25, 2009Take your favorite IPA and tone it down a t40% and this is what you get. The body isn’t quite light but you’ll have no problems drinking more than one with this floral aroma and piney taste to it. It’s balanced well for what it is but not upfront like most IPA’s.
