Draught in Newark. Orange-amber pour, smell the American hops from 3 feet away! Beige lacing, sweet and super juicy. Not really bitter, fruity sweet juicy hops, citrus and resin but no grit, awesome change of pace but want to keep it at low volume

Draught at the new Maple Shade location. Poured a pale golden. Bone-dry, heavily -hopped nose and body with a nice resiny grit. Definitely dry-hopped. Citrus and toast, leafy greens, smooth and complex. A little alcohol showing, a little soapy, medium body, very nice, might session with this if it were a bit weaker.

20100830 Tap at Newark brewpub. Beautiful amber, lightly hazed, streaming eff as if a commercial prop, and a sticky white mountain of froth sheeting lace. Lovely grapefruit and pine resin aroma and some classic orange marmalade and biscuit malts. Excellent and lingering bitterness with lots of sticky resins. In all its just a very hoppy and solid double ipa. Iron Hill, please expand to Harford County MD. Please?
