Ohh man I get sooo excited when I know they’ve got his bad boy on tap. Its an IPA on nitrogen. Weird right!. Probablydisgusting right? Not a chance. Pours a lovely pale straw color with a giant massive foamy head. Nose is of lavender, rose, saffron and even a bit of hops just ever so slightly bitter on the nose. In the mouth it is exquisite. Malt dominates at first. Vanilla character followed by a nice robust straw flavor. This fades into a slightly bitter hop that is really more floral than anything else. Excellent brew grat

One of the best beers to come out of this place. Floral hops finish this beer with a nice transition from the malty beginning.

Perhaps the best appearance of any beer ever. Huge head that had a multi-colored thing going on, It was white on top, then tan, then the beer was amber. The tan part faded in about a minute but it was still cool. Unfortunately the appearance was the only remarkable part of this beer. The mouthfeel was almost slimy like their century ale, and the hops were floral but weak in both the aroma and the flavor.

Very good IPA. Had a slightly malty start, then the hops came out. The hops were grassy and floral but werent overpowering....they had a nice flavor. Finish wasnt overly bitter too.
