Pours a alightly unclear golden orange with mimimal white head. Smell is caramel malt forward, sweet and some citrus hops. Taste is similar with attributes to the nose, but I get a little sweet tea and hop citrus with lemon zest. Interesting, but I think this particular bottle was past its prime.

Grapefruit seems to usher in on the aftertaste as well. Aroma is hoppy and organic soil mixed with fresh citrus in the breeze. Theres an earthy feel that lingers and then mixes well with the hop prescence. A nice ipa here.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Originally reviewed: 1/16/10. I’ve wanted to try this beer for awhile, and just recently started seeing this around the area. Poured into a pint glass. Pours a crystal clear orange with a big rocky white head on top. Decent retention, left lots of sticky lace. Scents of grass, lemon, and floral hops.
Nice crisp body on this. Carbonation level is moderate to high. Big hoppy bitterness right off the bat. Slight honey sweetness on the finish, but this is almost all hops. Drinkability is lower due to the grating bitterness. I couldn’t have too many of these, or my mouth would be toast. Still, if you’re looking for a good simple bitter IPA, look no further.
