Sep 21, 2009 Pours a lightly hazy, dark orange-amber color with a thick head of ivory tinted froth. Dense, sticky, cobweb sheeting clings hard to the glass, holding strong for the duration. Aromas are of toasted toffee and biscuit malt, with wisps of rye grain and perhaps some caraway seed. Orange peel and pine comprise the hop profile, which is quite resinous and balancing. Flavors follow suit, teetering between sweet toffee toast and strikingly bitter citrus and pine hop resins. The clean and powerful rye seems to intensify the hoppiness, sticking to the rear of the tongue on the finish. Big bodied and smooth, with moderate carbonation, the palate offers ample substance to hold up the bold flavors. Good stuff. I really dig the rye IPA sub-genre.

Sep 21, 2009 Lovely golden orange color. Hop aroma is gentle. Interesting mix of pepper and bitter hops. It works for me because the pepper fades off nicely.

Sep 20, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours amber with a thick 1 inch head that dissipates quickly. Nice lacing left on side of glass. Nose is malty, fruity, with some rye in the background. Flavor is similiar, bold caramel malts and citrus blend nicely with the rye. A bit sticky from the hops resin, and some slight bitterness that lingers on the palate. This is a tasty treat.
