Jul 28, 2008 Bottled. An invicible hazy yellow liquid (like witbier). Small white head is cramy and durable. Aroma is hoppy: dry pine/resin with floral notes, lemon and some grass. Malts are quite dry. Some toffy in the finish. Flavor is dryis and hops really have power. MEdium bodied. A bit sticky texture of bitterness. Quite lively carbonated.

Jul 28, 2008 What a bite!! Ouch!! A nice pourer, thin head, fizzing away as quick as you can say "citrussy". A long finish, bitter aftertaste. This is going down very well. Oh, orangy aroma...

Jul 23, 2008 Wowee. I recalled this being pretty awesome and it seems my memory is good (for beer stuff at least). Massive weedy, sweaty, resiny British hops in the aroma - incredibly intense in the best possible way - with a hint of rosewater. No real esters or malt, quite clean besides the hops. Tastes incredibly bitter but really good. Pale malts are there but don’t really bring any sweetness, just enough structure to carry the hopping. Very dry, loads of hop flavour, very bitter. Though it shares a lot philosophically with US IPAs (clean yeast, massive hopping) it’s basically unrecognisable as such. Barely any malt sweetness, no hop weirdness and no Pine O Cleen. Kinda like the beer world’s answer to a martini. Fun stuff, though I imagine a lot of people would hate it. I like it a lot.

Jul 22, 2008 Pours pale gold with 2-finger white head. Nose is Simcoe hoppy with that cheesy, feety hop aroma, tropical fruit, malt, white pepper. Nice nose on this. The flavor is hoppy, malty, with intermingling citrus, white pepper, and tropical fruit notes throughout. This is a unique, well made IPA.

Jul 17, 2008 22.4 oz. bottle. Poured clear orangish gold. Thin white head. Very nicely balanced between citrus hoppiness and sweet malts. Finished with a dry, lingering bitterness. Sessionable. Not a big fan of the marketing campaign; the "we don’t care if you don’t like our beer" micro schtick is a bit old.
