6oz pour at the brewery. Pours a hazy straw gold with some lacing white head. Big, bright nose, scallion, lime, grapefruit, pine. Flavor is really, incredibly, juicy, grapefruit, orange, scallion, lime, chive, lemon zest. Full, bright, zesty finish. Really nice.

Bottle at home with friends. Thanks Adam!! Pour is hazy golden with a bright white head and good lacing. Huge citrus, tropical fruits, pineapple, mango, pine, grapefruit, kiwi, and grass in the aroma. Taste is super tropical, pineapple juice, orange peel, kiwi, light weed, grass, biscuit, straw, and honey with a medium bitter finish. Medium body with high carbonation. Another amazing IPA from Hill Farmstead; Shaun can do no wrong.

Very hazy amber beer, good white head. Slightly soft palate but with good fine carbonation. Good hops - orange and fresh yellow grapefruit and grapefruit marmalade. Traces of mango and peach. Some aniseed alcohol. Semi dry finish, fairly bitter aftertaste. Good beer but can’t believe these other scores!

Growler courtesy of my Hill Farmstead pusher - Leighton! Cheers Ears! Palate is light and a little crispy. Lovely rich Galaxy with medium orange marmalade in good balance with sweetish mango. On the backend is tangerine and a little lemon. Semi dry finish with mild minerals and a medium bitter linger. Now I get it!

On tap at Prohibition Pig. Pours cloudy golden with a lacy, white head. Aroma of a lot of citrus and floral hops plus some caramel malts. Flavor the same. Smooth texture. A good beer.

Big growler pounded within two nights. Hazy Orange with a two finger head. Very frothy but dissipated quickly, very nice pacing. Smell is packed with hops. Taste is extremely Hoppy, bitter with a slight citrus peel note accentuated by even more hops. Delicious hop bomb here.

Draft at lord hobo. Big citrusy notes, grapefruit, mango, touches of apricot. Full flavored, big mouthfeel. This brewery continues to amaze

Lukaduke (1021) - Portland, Maine, USA - JAN 20, 2013
Pours a rich orange golden color with a finger of sticky foam.. Aromas are dank herbal tropical hop juice. Nice apricot, mango and citrus take the lead with a dank earthy caramel malt backbone to hold everything in place and deliver this big hop juice flavor. Nice lingering fruit.... YUM!

Sweet cotton candy and grapefruit nose, lots of sticky hops, resin. Taste is moderately sweet, moderately bitter, lots of grapefruit, pine, apricot and tangerine. Slightly astringent finish.
