This is the brewery's newest beer, this American style IPA is liberally hopped for a taste bud adventure! Slightly malty with a citrus floral hops right up front, a true hophead dream.

Bottle. Pours a mildly hazy deep orange, with a minimal head. Holy fucking sediment, there are large black chunks floating around in my beer. Seriously, what the fuck is floating in my beer? This isn’t the usual small sediment, these are huge dirt like black chunks. Anyway. Flavor is well balanced with a sweet thick malt base followed by mellow hop presence. Thick and chewy on the palate, not a bad IPA at all.

Bottle from the generous, Bockyhorsey! Pour was full orangey to just short of copper, huge-mongo head that started with a gusher when opening the bottle (a gusher, infection fears). The aroma was caramel malts, tea bags, some light floral notes. The flavor followed the aroma, tea bags, caramel, and some spicey malts. Mouthfeel was firm malty with a bitter punch in the finish, but the hops weren’t big enough to impress. Another big thanks to Bill for scoring me another brew!

Bottle thanks to msante79
Opaque orange with a thin white head. Sweet nose with a lot of caramel, some grapefruit and citrus. Flavor is similarly sweet but very juicy with heavy citrus and fruit, lots of malt to balance out any bitterness. Not incredibly complex or hop heavy, but enjoyable.

12 oz. bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey - Pours a hazy amber color with some small floaties and a half finger thick off white head. Very light lacing. Has a sweet pineapple aroma. Flavor is sweet and floral. Palate is a little thin and just a tad bit dry. Light to medium body. A nice IPA. Thanks Bill and Wendy.

Solid amber pour with a nice frothy head. Good flowery hoppy aroma. Real solid aftertaste/ Kind of piney but balanced and tasty. Real good

Courtesy of mother in law. Good floral aroma. Copper body with white head. Good sugary citrus flavor. Cool and crisp on the palate fine refreshment after work.

Bottle courtesy of Bockyhorsey. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with a 2 finger foamy cream head with decent lacing. The nose is sweet malt and floral hops. The taste is light citrus hops and sweet malt with a touch of pine in the finish. Medium bodied. Mellow IPA and an easier drinker. Thanks Bill!
