Bottle opened with a load hiss and poured with a huge head, like the whole glass was head. Pours a lightly hazy amber with golden notes and a huge foamy off white head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, caramel, cardboard and nuts, some citrus. Flavor of grapefruit, bitter hops, probably the most extreme hop bitterness I have experienced. Also getting some pine and other mixed citrus notes, caramel and some toffee. Very tingly mouthfeel. I think some infection may have set in on this one. But still ended up being a decent IPA.

Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at Three Cellars in St Francis, Wisconsin. Pours a semi-hazy golden orange brew with a thick and lumpy off-white head that slowly dissipates and stays thick throughout. Aroma of citrus zest, a touch of oranges, mild caramel malt and a touch of toffee. Taste is medium bodied, well-carbonated with flavors of light caramel and apricot flavored malts, grapefruit and lemon zest with some toffee. Finish is semi-bitter that quickly disappears to a mild APA light bitterness.

DLD. Pours a clear orange. Bitter and quite hoppy. Hints of plant sap and resin. Medium to light bodied. Long bitter finish. Medium carbonation. OK

Poured a volcanically effervescent amber with a voluptuous frothy white head that would not stop erupting. Had to place the bottle in the sink and pour it over a duration of several minutes. Nice initial aroma of pine and grapefruit rind with a bit of sweetness. Taste follows with dry notes of rind, grass and a bit of bitter earthiness with a touch of toffee sweetness. Slightly spicy. Extremely bubbly body gives it almost a hoppy-tripel feel. While it is likely that the foam phenomenon was more due to the bottle’s age than its intended construction, I must admit it added a bit of liveliness to what could have been otherwise a forgettable beer.

pours dark apricot, no head. sweet grapefruit aroma. the taste has a certain hoppy bitterness, with citrus flavors. finishes bitter. my reaction to this relatively simple IPA is "nice. what can i say?"
