Nov 30, 2008 12oz bottle from lithy, thanks Justin. Copper color with a white head. Slightly hoppy and fruity, maybe a liitle past it’s prime. Decent hop bite, not overwhelming, not bad.

Nov 21, 2008 Draft at Casa Rustica in Boone, NC on 10/14/2008. Clear orange/amber with a rather spare off white head that settled pretty quickly. Some spicy earthy hops overlay a base of light caramel. Medium body and carbonation, lightly bitter, pretty clean palate. Caramel flavors are dominant, hop bitterness comes through at the finish, Drinkable and went down well with the dinner that I had. Pretty much of an English style IPA, as the northwest hops used never really make a big statement.

Nov 16, 2008 Pours gold in color with about an inch of head sitting atop.
Smell is slightly hoppy. Seems a bit subdued and not near enough. Same thing comes across in the flavor. Seems to be incredibly muted and restrained. Very easy drinking, but not overly inviting or complex.

Oct 23, 2008 Bottle Courtesy of sultree via BMan113VR at bu11zeye’s house. Orange reddish dark copper color. Nose: burnt woody sunflower seeds and toffee. Taste is more of the same plus a nice toasted bitter biscuit taste that finishes without a bitter bite.

Oct 22, 2008 Bottle thanks to suttree. Sent a photo in. Pours a clear amber with a largish, off-white head. Aroma of spicey hops, rotting fruits, and toffee. Taste is rotten fruits, hops and a light toasty malt. Water like mouthfeel. Not super enjoyable.
