Drank at their pub September 27, 2009, on tap at 8.5%. Hazy honey, medium head. Aroma of hops plant sweet and gentle. Taste slightly of hops plant, small notes of sweet berries, bit of bitterness with a little presence of alcohol, which suggests to me they are wrong about the poursantage. It’s vegi but drinkable!

Sample tray. Gold. Drinkable with moderate hops. Similar to the Pale but with a better body and stronger finish.

My Bottom Line:
This leafy and peppery India Pale Ale offers a little honey and caramel to nearly balance out its brazenly bitter finish.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A thin film of foam tops the clear pale amber.
-The leafy hop nose was a tad dusty, which was bothersome.
-The hop bitterness was earthy as well as peppery.
-Peaches and citrus fruit sometimes appear within.
-This is very drinkable throughout, even though the nose is not terribly appealing.

On tap at the brewpub.
