Cask @ Brewery - This is delicious! Has kind of a sugary sweet maltiness, with lots of juicy fruitiness. Tastes really fresh and clean, with an earth dry malt body. Great lignering bitter finish.

I’m not getting a big hit of hops on the nose like I’d like. But, other than that, it’s a mighty tasty IPA. Lots of juicy fruit and citrus with a chewy body. Plenty of hop flavor and bitterness. Long dry finish.

Pour on tap at the brewery is hazy orange with white head, aroma brought notes of caramel, some dank pine, slight grapefruit and orange notes, touch of pine in there as well. Taste is a mix of caramel, toffee and sweet biscuit mixing with the pine, orange, and grapefruit notes, finishing a bit bitter. Not bad.

brentfeesh (1191) - Gadsden, Alabama, USA - OCT 9, 2011
On cask at the brewery. Frothy pour golden Orange with plenty of airation. Great fresh hop aroma, cascade for sure. Very nice flavor full of cascade and citrus hops. Touches of pine. The mouthfeel is so creamy due to the engine pour. Dryish finish. A delicate, flavorful brew.

brinehart (89) - Colorado, USA - APR 28, 2011
On cask. Very clear copper pour. Fine off-white head. Very soft nose from the cask presentation...even from cask I would expect a bigger nose. Some fresh citrusy and floral hop character in the nose, but it is subdued. Taste follows nose. Hops backed up with a very nice caramel malt finish. Overall, a very drinkable and classic pale ale. Very smooth from the cask.

(Draught at CooperSmith) rich amber color, constant film of white bubbles. Nose of spicy hops, peppery, and caramel. Taste of sweet caramel, mild hops, pine and umami. Spicy finish, syrupy body.

Tap @ Coopersmiths. Clear yellow orange appearance with a creamy white head. Piney and mildly floral hoppy aroma. Mouthfeel is creamy. Piney hopped flavor with pale to amber maltiness but like many of the other beers here, it’s a little dull. Average or so IPA.
