Jan 16, 2007 12 oz. bottle via trade with CaptainCougar - Pours a clear golden color with a one and a half finger thick off white head. Light, fine carbonation. Nice lacing. Has a light bread and herbal hop aroma. Almost like popcorn. Has a slight, sweet grain malt flavor. Not over hopped. Not your typical AIPA. Medium body. No lingering after taste. Not what I was expecting, but still good. Thanks Tom.

Jan 12, 2007 Thick and heavy IPA. Picked up a case from my buddy Rick at beer and pop to drink while brewing our Belgian triple styel ale w/orange. Very hard to put down more than one or two at a time but a good IPA none the less.

Jan 2, 2007 On tap at Great Lakes Brewery. Semi-cloudy golden amber. Intense hop aroma and flavor, can you say bitter? Bitter like fresh grapefruit. Very warming. Medium body and very complimentary maltiness. Dry with sweet pear aftertaste.

Dec 11, 2006 12 oz bottle, via Zathrus13. Pours a clear dark gold colored body under a small tight bubbled, fairly creamy, white head. Some light lazy carbonation visible. Aroma is mostly floral hops with a light citric component. Some light doughy malt below. Flavor is moderately hoppy up front, and becomes pretty bitter on the finish. The malt is pretty minimal, revealing a bit too much of the 7.5% alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with moderate fizzy carbonation. This one just didn’t do it for me in the end. It seemed way too one dimensional and boring. All bitterness all the time.

Dec 3, 2006 Crystal Orange, no head to speak of. Grapefruit and maybe a hint of resin in the aroma. Very sticky, earthy resiny hop flavor dominates. Some peppery, spicy notes, as well. Long, sticky aftertaste.

Nov 18, 2006 12 oz bottle. Super clear pink orange with a whipped egg white head. Leaves a lump and lace splats. Light pine and floral grapefruit. Crisp and dry with a peppery juniper bite; like a martini. As the hops numb the taste buds orange and tangerine emerge. A classic IPA.
