A- Pours a cloudy brownish orange with a frothy 2 finger head. S- Smell is dominated by piney hops with a strong malty backbone. T- Taste, like the nose, is dominated by piney hops, with a strong bready backbone. M- Thick with lots of carbonation. D- This one had an intense lingering bitterness that was something to savor. Really enjoyed it.

Draft. Dark amber beer with a cream colored head. Grapefruit aroma. Grapefruit and rich malt flavor. Medium bodied. Nice bitterness. Grapefruit and pine lingers with light dark malts.

I was at the Brewery today. I had this beer. It was amazing. Packed with flavor. Satisfying. A vacation in a glass. One of the best beers I have ever had and maybe my new favorite. Hop to it and get to this brewery as fast as a rabbit. Now! I sure hope Geno decides to bottle this one. If you like the Deuce you must try this one. If you don’t like Deuce then get you head examined.

Draught at the brewpub. Lightly hazy dark amber-red color with a light beige head. Butterscotch and light floral hops in the aroma. The flavor has light caramel, firmly bitter hops and light butterscotch. Medium bodied and a little slick. Pretty sure there was some diacetyl going on here, which definitely brought things down.
