Tap @ Wedge Brewing Co. Light orange color. WOW. Flavor is an earthy tannin, apricot pit, Pale malts and crystal. All finishes with a bold kick in the nuts bitterness. A big time palate killer. Sweet, lingering hop bitterness. Unique BOLD, Solid. Aroma has a musty malt character. Lots of minerals in the nose, salty. This is the Best IPA in all of Asheville! <27 Oct 09>

Outstanding, especially for a brew pub beer! I’m probably a bit partial, as The Wedge is my favorite hometown hangout, but damn, they do some good beers. Took home my first growler of this the other night, and man, it was sooo grassy. I mean this in the best way. It was like diving into a bowl of hops. And then coming up into a syrupy surface of malt. Nice, nice, nice.

Deep copper pour with light white head and lace. Apples, caramel malt, and citrus hops. Sweet malt, apples, earthy and citrus hops. Medium full bodied with good carbonation.

Brewgrass 2009 Pours a thin white head over a clear, dark yellow body. Subdued earthy hop aroma. Mildly bitter, good malt balance.

on tap-pours a white head with bubbles and laces and amber color. Aroma is sweet pine/resin hops, secondary medium malt. Taste is sweet pine/resin with a good hops bite, some orange, backbone of caramel-medium malt. Medium body. OK carbonation.

Draft at Thirsty Monk in Asheville, 6/26. Liked it. Didn’t get to Wedge, but did enjoy the beers that I had on tap downtown. Give this one a go.

Growler. Thanks for picking this up, Chris. Deep orange amber with no head. (Note: The beer was a few days old and had been opened by the time I drank it.) Pretty nice nose, flavor and body. Definitely english in style and one of the better examples I’ve sampled. Would love to have this on cask.
