Nov 14, 2009 On tap at the brewery. A fine IPA, with lots of lace. Phoenix, Nugget and Pilgram hops. Some fruitiness, citrus. Drying but 44 IBU English style is appreciated. The clear winner here. They are tweaking it for hopheads and therefore sales, however I would get a hold of this while you can. Good drinkability.

Oct 27, 2009 Bottle. Pours hazy dark amber with a half-inch of lasting off-white head. Smells very "English" with notes of toast, nuts, and grass. The flavor is fruity and otherwise bland. Subtle hints of strawberry and mango. Definitely not your typical IPA. Balanced bitterness and a hint of sour. Dry throughout with a lasting finish. Not what I would reach for when I want an IPA but not bad, just very different.

Oct 4, 2009 Pours a dark cloudy amber/copper color with light golden orange hues and visible carbonation bubbling up and a one finger yellowish beige head with good retention that leaves sporadic rings of lacing.
Floral hoppy aroma with a caramel malt backbone and some dry piny and citrus notes.
Slightly dry with subtle pine and citrusy lemon peel and grapefruit balanced by a caramel malt backbone that is slightly sweet. Dry finish.

Sep 22, 2009 Bottle from Wegman’s Williamsport. Pours turbid ruddy dark straw with 1-finger off-white head. Nose is fruity, malty, with hops and earthy notes. The flavor is heavy malt, earthy, hopcitric, with figgy fruit but an overall somewhat dry and earthy experience. Decent richness and complexity.

Sep 15, 2009 Aroma of pine and citrus hops, very light. Semi metallic finish on the flavor, mostly pine and faint citrus, light and green, not great.

Pours a reddish copper color with a large tan head. Aroma is caramel, grass, hops, malt. Flavor is bitter harsh resiny hops, caramel, lots of spices and herbs and a bit astringent. Interesting hop combination gives this a little different bitterness than I’m used to with IPA’s.
