On Tap, wow what a hop BANG!!! Very nice hop aroma with a citrus note. Pours nice copper color with a nice whit head. Great lace throughout the whole beer. This is by far one of the best IPA’s I have had. It hits you at first with hops than smoothes out with a nice bitter ending. They should call this loaded cannon because it is loaded with HOPS!!!

Bottled @Marty’s Newton, MA. Golden color like a scotch, a slim but persistent cramy white head. Aroma is complex, sweety, floral and fruity, notes of apricot, citrus. Flavor is sweet, spicy and notes of alcohol. Mouth feel is spicy and bitter. Very good beer with a nice price @ Marty’s. THis place is the beer Paradise!

Pours hazy medium orange witha frothy off-white head. Aroma is heavy malty of grain, and bread. Moderatly hoppy pine and herbs. Lighty yeasty of bubblegum and a touch of alcohol. Flavor starts lightly sweet but malty / grainy and heavily bitter then finishes ith citrus grapefruit with a long finish.
