Feb 5, 2006 Finally entering notes from November tasting - many thanks to Cougar for sharing! Dark ruddy copper pour with a decent sized head. Big hoppy aroma balanced nicely with caramel malts. Similar flavors - nice darker caramel malts and a good amount of hop flavors, and a decent bitter bite to finish. Very good.

Dec 10, 2005 Growler courtesy of kms399: Pours a dark copper amber with a big frothy light tan head. Fresh hoppy aroma has some dry toasty caramel balance. Body starts with some nice caramel malty sweetness well-balanced with lots of hoppy bitterness and a crisp, toasty finish. Not as hoppy as some IPAs, but still well done. Thanks Ken!

Nov 29, 2005 Updated: Oct 20, 2006Growler thanks to CaptainCougar. Poured a golden amber color with a medium off-white head. Aroma had a decent amount of floral and perfumey hops. A little earthy as well. Malty flavor had some hop mixed in with a mild bitter finish.
GABF 2006: Clear brown amber color with a large off-white head. Big citrus aroma followed by diacetyl. Hoppy citrus flavor with a light malt. Mild bitter finish. This taste would have scored a 6 A and 7 F.

Dec 23, 2004 Dark amber. Citrusy aroma Toffee, caramel, and chocolate malt flavors. Good american hop charge. Rich and dark. Some of the dark malts don’t blend smoothly with this particular hop charge.
