Nov 16, 2009 in bottle @ GIBF, really nice IPA from a brewer that I am liking more and more. not overbearing, just the right amount of body and character, could use a little more citrus to combat the pine taste, but very nice.

Oct 30, 2009 Bottle: Poured a brownish amber with a nice head. The aroma was pine, floral, and grapefruit. The flavor was slight citrus, some spice, and piney hops. Overall, surprisingly tasty.

Sep 10, 2009 Bottle, brown pour, nice long-lasting off-white head. Definitely doesn’t look like most IPAs....a more brown look and sense to it. A piney scent is strong here....earthy IPA aromas. Slightly sweet, slightly bitter...not a huge hop blast, but a good balance of sweet, caramel-type notes and hoppy bite. This tastes different from most IPAs that I’ve had, but it’s quite good.

Sep 8, 2009 Bottle shared by OSCF. Thanks Todd! Pours hazy orange. Nose of grapefruit and pine. Flavor is dirty and earthy hops with a strong sweet malt presence. Meh.

Sep 3, 2009 Bottle shared by Dave. Pours hazy orange/amber with whitish head. Sweet malty version of the style. Decent citrus, but not enough. Perhaps a bit old? Palate not too exciting, either.
