Draft. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Grapefruit and tropical fruit aroma. Tropical fruit and grapefruit flavor with backing caramel. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Tropical fruit and grapefruit linger with earth and backing caramel.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A: The pour is a slightly cloudy golden amber with a fluffy white head.
S; Smells nice and citrusy with lots of floral and spicy hops. A fair amount of bready malts along with some light pine and toffee sweetness. Not an overly impressive aroma, but decent.
T: The nose starts off with light citrus hop notes and a moderate caramel and toffee sweetness. Floral hops and some spicy hop notes as well. There is only a little bit of bitterness on the finish.
M: Both the body and carbonation are medium.
O: This is a pretty good beer, but it’s not an amazing beer.

Draft. Orange pour, frothy white head. Citrusy, bitter hops, a little tropical, a little fruity, and some balancing malt. Standard IPA, I have no complaints. Would drink it again.

2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours a hazy orange color with a slight glow to it. Aroma of citrus and floral with a strong presence of hops. Taste is a god amount of hops mixed with mild fruit notes. A decent IPA that was not too bitter.

(Draught) Pours a hazy golden body with a medium off-white head. Aroma of grain, citrus, and herbs. Flavor of herbs, pine, orange, and grass with a dry, bitter finish.
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Might be my favorite ER offering. Brilliant citrus aroma of grapefruit and oranges. All about the hops with a dry bitter finish. Brilliant hop profile bursting from a frothy white head on an orange-amber color. Awesome. Beer for the people!
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: JAN 25, 2011 Appearance: Pours a semi cloudy amber gold with a thin 1/4 inch film of white. Leaves spotty lacing.
Aroma: Big citrusy orange, a little cat pee.
Taste: Tangerine hop, earthy hop, and sturdy, fairly dry malt holding it together. Finished clean and bitter.
Mouthfeel: The earthy hops gave it some gritty texture,not sure if I am imagining this. Also a bit juicy. Moderately carbonated.
Overall: Very enjoyable, hoppy in all the right places.

On tap. Pours with a hazy golden body with a white head. Aroma is citrus, orange, light tropical fruits, caramel, and nearly a belgian yeast ester note (could be the hops though). Taste is orange, herbal, and fruity hops everywhere. Medium carbonation. Dry.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Wow. Best of the ERB line so far. 6 hops in this one and it shows in the aroma and taste. Citra comes through the loudest. Very lemony and bitter. Something different from the usual IPA suspects.
