3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Muddy red brown pour with off-white decent sized head. Bigger than expected hoppy nose of citrus. Flavor has a nice punch of hops with good solid malt jab to back it up. Good amount of warmth from the alcohol. Nice hoppy finish.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours amber with a decent white head. Aroma of hoppy grass. Taste is heavily of hops, which lingers for a while. This one is not for me, too hoppy. But that is just my personal preference.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draft sample of this at the Missoula Winter Brewfest. Murky reddish brown color, thin beige head. Aroma is very hoppy- pine, floral and citrus. Taste is also very hoppy, a little unbalanced.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
22 oz bomber. Pours fairly opaque and orange/amber like an unfiltered IPA. Light tan head. Aroma is bitter, with a bit of citrus and pine. Medium bodied and creamy on the palate. I like the taste. Citrus, especially orange and pretty hoppy. The bitterness lingers for a while. This is a fairly easy drinking and smooth beer given the alcohol content. Thumbs up to the brewery of my hometown for this one.
