Oct 15, 2006 Sample from a bottle at Binny’s "Fall Festival of BEERS." Nice hoppy IPA, strong hops on nose and palate. Deep golden color, surprising for an IPA.

Oct 15, 2006 Bottled. Poured cooper, with a nice, white head. Nose was floral and citrusy, hinting at the hop flavor to come. Taste was citrusy, resiny, and malty, with a wonderful, bitter, hop finish. A great IPA!

Oct 12, 2006 Bottle (12oz). Shared with biegaman, my bottle. Poured clear deep copper with a minimal off-white head. Mil d aroma of slightly woody malt, medium bitter resin/herbal hops - not much, really. Taste - very bitter, almost harsh resin hops, lightly herbal, enough toasty juicy malt backbone to keep it somewhat in check. Slightlly weak IPA body, extremely astringent/bitter mouthfeel, enough bitterness in the long finish to seem harsh and more alcholic than 5.7%. A decent IPA, lacks character (sort of generic "bitter" to my taste) but okay.

Oct 9, 2006 Repectable IPA. better than average, but nothing to distinguish it. Better than their pale ale.

Oct 6, 2006 Updated: Oct 27, 2008On Cask @ Map Room: Poured a copper color with a thin head that faded to a swirlling white line. Pine, grapefruit, and malty aroma. As it was on cask it was very mellow and in need of a little carbonation. Carmel and citrus hops filled the palate with a sweet and lightly bitter finish. I’d like another handful of hops in here, but otherwise a tasty brew. 6/3/7/3/14 = 3.3.
Bottle from Kan Presents: Fresh Hops - a blind tasting. Pours a red mahogany with a beige head. Sour lemons and malts. Sour cherries, red fruit, lemons. Tart and strange. Watery and sour. 6/3/6/3/10 = 2.8

Oct 4, 2006 Pours a rich copper with a cream colored head. The aroma is hoppish with pine and citrus. Pleasent hoppish flavors of citrus with a mild amount of caramel coat the tongue and the finish is quick and snappy.

Sep 30, 2006 Pours clear rich dark copper with a sudsy tan head that gives pretty nice lacing. Aroma is hoppy with citrus and pine with some caramel malt backing things up. Medium body with some prickly carbonation. Starts with a small amount of malt and a good amount of resiny pine / woody hops. The finish has prickly carbonation adding intensity to the hops. A nice solid IPA.
