Nov 7, 2009 750ml from Fogdog. Pours hazy golden copper with massive thick off-white head. Nice lacing. Aroma is grapefruit, orange zest, pine, floral hops, and cedar. Flavor is grapefruit, citrus rinds, pine, bitter hops, cedar, and light caramel. For such a massive head the mouthfeel is actually a little under carbonated. Flavor finishes with bitter hops and nice cedar flavor. Cedar adds a very nice quality to the IPA flavor profile. I wish more brewers would experiment with different woods. Really solid brew and I love the cedar. The only real flaw is the lack of carbonation in the finish.

Nov 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to ericandersnavy. Cloudy orange amber with a decent sized off-white head. Aroma is like the cedar isle at Home Depot, and hops. Taste is spicy with some grass, cedar and hops.

Nov 5, 2009 bottle, thanks to Daknole, pours carmel with a medium frothy off white head. Aroma is soft with grapefruit and citrus hop, some apple cider. Flavor is nice and dry with toasted malt, very bready with nutty character ending moderately bitter with nice pear and apple finish.

Oct 31, 2009 Rating #300! 750 ml bottle poured into a tulip. Pours a clear gold/amber with thin off-white ring of a head. Aroma of sweet malt, bread, citrus, pine, and light cedar wood. I taste the cedar more than I smell it. Taste of raw untreated cedar lumber, pine, lemon pledge, sharp hop bite, and slightly sweet. Finishes dry. Crisp bitting carbonation, medium smooth mouthfeel. Good IPA, the cedar is different and it takes some getting used to, but it’s interesting and pretty good. Quite complex.
