Aroma of earthy hops,fruity and sweet malts,with noticeable alcohol. Sweet upfront followes by a brash mixture of grassy,herbal hops,fruity malts,and wood. Finish is lingering herbal,earthy hops,wood,and alcohol. I like the idea here,but this one just seems to be a bit of a miss. Leaves it’s mark though. nickd717 (1350), Palo Alto, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 18, 2009 Bomber via trade. Mostly clear medium amber color with a creamy, lasting one-finger white head. Aroma is caramel malt, spices, and floral/citrus hops, heavier on the malt than most IPAs. Seems misclassified as a Pale Ale though as it is rather hoppy and calls itself an IPA. Flavor is caramel malt, earth, slight smokiness, dead leaves, table sugar, and citrusy hops. I was able to pick more flavors out of this one than I typically do somehow. Pretty complex and good overall with a fairly full palate for the style and good carbonation level. Another good one from FFF.
