Bottle. Pours a dark copper with a big, white pillowy head. Aroma is definitely lacking but has some hop aromas. Taste is bitter, not super well balanced but a decent overall IPA.

There’s that good ole Simcoe hop profile. I’m not sure what Canadian malts are, but this is a good IPA

Understated bitterness for such a hoppy beer.nice color but missing something in the initial taste.the aftertaste makes up for it though.

clear -- see through -- yellow with microbubbles. Some butter flavors. Interesting, but there needs to be something else at work. Very long finish and quite enjoyable.

vikingguy (620) - Chaska, Minnesota, USA - SEP 7, 2012
Honey gold with foamy white head. Fresh hop aroma. Taste - A good balance of bitter and sweet. Grapefruit-piney hops and grainy malt. A solid IPA.

Scent is light pine with a lot of citrus. Taste is a decent bitter hop and a lasting bitter. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

22oz bottle from PortableParty, First whiff is good stuff, Simcoe hops abound, next smell fades a bit, taste is pretty dank hop wise, though not what i would describe as sticky, this bottle is starting to fade out as i was getting a bit of musty flavor on the finish, fresh this would be good stuff though.

FURLYSURIOUS (262) - Orono, Minnesota, USA - APR 12, 2012
Pours a dark gold with consistent beading and two full fingers of thick dollops of slightly off-white head. Nose has grassy hops, some floral notes, some piney bits - not much in the way of anything citrus or fruity. The taste is pretty earthy, herbal. The bitterness is muddied up in there. Not my favorite offering from Flat Earth.

22oz bomber pour. comes out a clear light orange. minimal white foamy head. nice lacing on the glass throughout. scents of earthy + citrus hops, picked up on some sweet malts as well. very clean taste, bitter with flavors of citrus hops and caramel malt. very nice ipa at a decent price!

Bottle to glass. Dark copper pour with a white head. Heavy hop aroma with some pine and citrus. Solid IPA. Great price for a bomber at $4.
