Oct 3, 2009 On tap at Frisco Grille: Pours a transparent deep bronze with a thin, stringy-lacing wispy white head. Mild aroma of fresh piny hops and lightly sweet toasty caramel malt. Starts with pretty good fullness and light malty sweetness with a crisp bittering hoppy presence and light citrusy hoppy balance before a drier bittersweet finish. Needs more assertiveness hop character, but an ok IPA.

Apr 9, 2009 Draft... Clear, dark, ruby ale with a small, creamy, white head. Nice retention. Earthy hops, lots of pine, spicy rye and mild grapefruit constitute the aroma. Full-bodied with a skim-milk mouthfeel and dancing carbonation. Moderate pine and citric bitterness, rye dryness and low residual sweetness. Finishes crisp, snappily bitter and dry.

Mar 25, 2009 Tap at Barcade. Deep amber colour with a thick white head. Aroma is quite spicy. Lots of rye malt character and a bright piny simcoe spiciness. Quite fresh and piny tasting. The palate is very crisp and firm with a nice assertive hoppiness. Light grapefruit flavour as well. Hoppy but not all that bitter. Solid IPA.

Mar 12, 2009 Draft at Capone’s. Pours blackish with dark brown edges (I was surprised by the black color in this) with off-tan head. Nose is rye oumpernickly malt, spicy hops, roasty caramel, some earthy peaty notes. Tastes a bit more significant than it smells, with hefty rye malt, caramel, dark chocolate, some nuts, hoppy citrus, and some spiciness. Very good.
