#236 for this beer, 22oz bottle picked up in WI on vacation. Glowing orange color with a decent white head, very clingy with good lacing. Smell more of the malt than hops, floral, light hops. Earthy, malty, with a hop bite in the finish, very smooth. (974)

Pours copper with a thin white head. Smells of wildflowers and earthy. Tastes earthy with some caramel hints, some peppery splashes and a nice spicy finish.

Bottle courtesy of Allstar on 07/18/2009. Clear pale amber body with a medium frothy off-white head. Sweet floral hop aroma with some caramel. Sweet dark malt flavor, light smoke and a good floral hop background. Medium body with moderate carbonation.

Lovely in the glass after the pour, a slightly hazy amber base with an off-white pillow of a head. The nose is a bit musty and spicy. A sip reveals a depth of flavors, with rich malts. While the creamy brew washes over my tongue, the caramel malt gives way to the woody finish, all enhanced by the lingering spicy hops. This beer needs to be savored, as it only gets better as it warms. Not sure that NWI realizes how lucky we are to have Three Floyds, but I do.

Light orange with medium head. Malty with a nice bitter taste. Not over the top hops or at least balanced with a nice sweetness. A nice option to Dreadnaught.

July 2008: 3F Blackhear English Style IPA pours out in a clear golden stream and has a thin off-white head that forms after the initial pour. The aroma is hoppy with plenty of leafy hops and a slight wet oak quality. The flavor is also quite hoppy with lots of fresh pine followed by a moderately sweet toffee maltiness and then more pine sap! This beer has a medium-light body and is smoth and mouch more balanced that the 3F X was.

650 ML bottle () from West Side Liquor in West Harrison, Indiana. Rating #231 for this beer.

Bottle courtesy of Allstar at Immy’s Backyard Throwdown. Amber bodied under a short white head. Nose is floral and hoppy with citrus notes and sweet malts. Taste is resinous hops, chewy malts, caramel and grapefruit. Body is medium and oily. Carbonation is moderate. Ends with caramel, sweet malt, luscious hops and citrus notes. Nice!
