Tried this on tap at The Buckeye beerengine. It’s a very well done IPA. The Amarillo hops really stand out, it has an almost grapefruit aroma with a good balance between bitter/malty. It is a fairly light colored brew that’s smooth and refreshing, I had a couple of these to wash down the bottlecaps (fried Jalapeño slices) this is a very well balanced IPA.

Sep 8, 2008 Golden-orange in colour with a thin white coloured head, excellent lacing. The aroma was very hoppy with some pine, cedar, very light citrus and a bit of mint. The flavour is again very hoppy, dry, soapy, some pine, some caramel sweetness. Hoppy mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes long, hoppy and piney.
This was quite a fresh sample from a growler. A very good change after a weekend of sour beers.
A growler obtained in a trade with miketd, thanks Mike.
Opened on March 29, 2008
Very fresh, 5 days in the growler.

Apr 4, 2008 Growler at the sour tasting. Gold, nice white head. Nose is a gigantic hop explosion after what we’ve been drinking for the last 2 days. Caramel/toffee, juicy fruit. Flavor is caramel & hoppy goodness. Pine, mint mixed with some kind of fruit. Bitterness increases in the finish.

Feb 19, 2008 Growler thanks to crizay. Copper pour with good sized off-white head. Aroma is almost all hops with a slight hint of malt. Flavor is much the same, big hoppy and storng. Almost washes out the malt to a nice dry bitter finish.
