Bottle - Clear dark reddish pour with a foam head. Malty sweet in the nose with a nice whisky and rye subtleness. Smooth on the pallet with spice-hop notes and a sweet bitterness that mixes well with the rye texture. Need to sample again soon.

Sep 1, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours a dark amber and it had a big tan head. Nice hoppy smell, mainly grapefruit and other citrus hops. Great flavor, nice bitterness. Great malt balance. Really great beer.

Sep 1, 2008 22 oz bottle. Yum yum yum. Great strong IPA smell- hoppy sweet piny malty, yummy. Big and full and sweet in the mouth, without being gooey or sticky sweet. Not the gloppy candy sweet some get. Still had a sharpness underlying in the roundness.

Aug 31, 2008 Bottle from liquidsolutions. Dark cloudy red-tinged brown pour with big off-white head. Big floral hops, caramel, malt, and grapefruit on the nose. A little resin, but not skunky. Similar palate with the rye showing up but not as spicy/bitter as expected, and I mean that in a good way. Tingles and dances on the palate. Yum.

Aug 30, 2008 Poured from 22 oz bottle. The hue was reddish brown with a huge slightly brown head. The head lasted forever. Super hoppy aroma. Malty and hoppy - very well balanced.
