Mar 16, 2008 Bottle. Dark copper pour with thin white fizzy head. Aroma of metallic hops with faint spice. Taste of malt and piney hops. Uninteresting finish. Where are the hops? Tasted more like an American pale.

Mar 13, 2008 Bottle: Pours amber with good clarity and sparse off white head. Sweet flowery aroma with a graham cookie hint. Not much hop assertiveness or fruitiness, but still pleasant. Decent, creamy palate. Flavor is lacking character and depth. Just goes from a caramelized sweet malt character to a slightly inky, bittering hop finish. No fruity character or hop diversity. Not terrible.

Mar 3, 2008 Bottled, Lot 2847. Poured a clear, medium ambery-orange with a well-retained cap of beige head and sticky lacing. The aroma picked up a very nice blend of grapefruit, perfume, and floral hoppage over toffee and a pinch of honey at the base.. very pleasant. The flavor had sweet and sticky honey and grapefruit on the core, surrounded by pine, floral, and perfumey bitterness.. every once in a while light vegetal notes showed, but didn’t hamper it much. Medium-bodied on the palate with rather creamy carbonation.. this would’ve felt great if it didn’t get tacky/clingy at certain points. Overall a very nice brew.

Feb 23, 2008 Had an aroma of a scottish ale. Strong hints of toffee and grain with not much hop character. The taste was a lot different for that was when I got the true IPA taste which was different that the aroma but still pleasurable. Medium body and a good amount of complexity. I’d drink this one again. Nice brew.

Feb 11, 2008 Pours a clear amber with a ruby hue (when held to light). Minimal creme head falls fast. Nose is a combination of leafy and citrus aspects. Flavor is rounded. Earthy and nutty hop tones with a citrus hint. Bitter edge on the back side. Feel is smooth on liquid and the carbonation is decent enough. This is a smooth IPA that is easily drinkable.

Feb 8, 2008 Pours a copper orange color, vibrant and on the clear side. Just a little bit of white head a nice bit of lacing arond the glass. Smells earthy with a bit of hop spiciness. Tastes earthy and a little dull up front. On the finish is when the hops and the spiciness kick in. Mouthfeel is thin with somewhat subdued carbonation. Not a bad fresh hop IPA, not my favorite, but definitely drinkable.

Feb 6, 2008 Thanks to Vance for this one. Orangish, amber appearance, standing up a creamy beige head. Aroma has a caramel sugary character, and some berry fruitiness along with the pleasant hops. Sugary sweet up front lending to dry bitterness surrounded by caramel, citrus, and some earth. Medium body makes for easy drinking.

Feb 5, 2008 This was a very good beer. Poured from the bottle to a drak orange-red color with thick off-white head that lingered thru most of the glass and left good lacing. Nose was an immediate tangy, citrusy hop (mostly grapefruit)with a pleasant malty background. Mouthfeel of this full bodied beer was tangy and slightly bitter, but again ofset just enough by the malt. Flavor accented the citrus hoppy flavor of the nose, but also worked in a littel malty dark fruit as well.
This alll led to a very well rounded, long full finish.
Good Job Two Brothers!!
