Apr 19, 2009 On tap at Stone. Color was dark orange. Aroma of earthy and piney hops; with a bit of bread and caramel. Flavor was much of the same. A pretty solid amount of bitterness. A nice beer.

Apr 17, 2009 On Tap @ Callahans. Hops, Hops, Hops. Classic West Coast Super hopped IIPA. A little sweeter than I would like, but that’s my only complaint. I could go for a Keg of this stuff.

Apr 14, 2009 Growler from Craft Ale, and a pint at Capone’s, my two current favorite beer hangouts. The pour is dark straw, more toward gold than brown, with 1-finger of well retained off-white head. The nose is heavy piney hops, caramel malt, some fruit, peppery spice, tangerine. Tastes assertively hoppy with a good malt balance, and some finishing fruit. Well incorporated alcohol makes this one very easy to drink, and a damned fine IIPA. Give me another growler of this one any day of the week, and twice when my wife isn’t around.

Apr 5, 2009 Dark orange/amber. Super frothy, lacey off white head. Orange ribbon candy nose with spurts of caramel and spice, plump, juicy orange flavors with rindish bitterness in the finish. Fairly sweet and candy-like..flavors are actually quite nice. Slightly syrupy but not overly so, especially considering the sweetness here, which really takes those citrus hops and morphs them into orange candy. Really hot beer though..maybe not initially, but the throat and stomach feels thr warmth, almost burn quite quickly.
