On draft at Brewster’s in New Buffalo, MI. Smallish to no head. Light orange in color. Smells sweet, fruity and hoppy, and tastes the same. Ladies and Gentlemen, it hardly gets any better than this.

12 oz bottle, batch 8277 (1/9/08). Pours a hazy dark gold with a huge pillowy white head that retains well and laces the glass. There’s tons of big yeasties in the bottom.
The aroma is piney citrusy spicy peppery hops! Yum! It is a little subdued.
The flavor is sweet, slightly sugary, caramel malts, melon and grapefruits with a nice big fruity, peppery hop bite in the finish. It’s a little on the sweet side but this bottle is not quite so fresh. I’ve had it fresher with a bigger hop presence. The hop bitterness comes out more as it warms. The alcohol is very well hidden. The mouthfeel is medium to full with nice velvety carbonation.
Overall, this is fantastic! It’s very well balanced and is so yummy it’s almost seems sessionable. I wish I could get this regularly! This is right at the top of my list.

I have nothing bad to say about this beer. Amazing hop aroma and flavor. Well balanced though. This is a hop head’s dream. Beautiful citrus and floral hops.

pours a cloudy burnt orange with a 11/2 finger fluffy off white head. aroma is caramel malt and hops with grapefruit, melon, and some pine. has a medium to heavy body with good lacing and carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma with some orange. has a nice dry hop aftertaste and no sign of the 10% abv. the citrus fruits sit on the tongue for a bit and this is basically two hearted with balls. awesome! there is also a hint of honey throughout. the only thing i would change to make this a perfectly rated beer is jack up the ibus to 75 maybe 80 to give it a little more pine kick. other than that its pretty well balanced and also a pretty clean finish for a iipa.

Bottle poured into wine glass. Very pleasant aroma right off the top. Smells of grapefruit and honey. Light orange in color. Tastes of grapefruit, honey and unicorn tears. Just kidding about that last part. This stuff is delicious though. Palate - easy on the tongue with no bad aftertaste. It goes down the throat and warms the belly.
This is one of the best beers I’ve ever had. Awesome.
