On tap, served in an imperial pint glass at the Dilly Cafe in Cincinnati. First time trying this place out, had lunch with my grandmother (good sandwiches; will return next week to try the Laughing Dog Anubis). Hazy amber color. Nice, foamy thin white head that persists. Light, smooth carbonation, good lace. Nice bittersweet taste. Really nice piney grapefruit citrus aromas, on a maltier base. I enjoyed it.

I had this on tap at Brü Grill inLake Forest. It’s mildly hoppy for a double ipa.

Medium bodied and moderately sweet with minimal bitterness. Pine and earthy hop flavors supported by malty caramel. There was also an astringent alcohol note.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
On draft. Hard to argue with previous raters. Pours a hazy orange with a substantial yellow/white head that diminishes quickly. Aroma is pine cones and citrus. Taste is smooth sweet pale malt along with the characteristic grapefruit and pine resin notes imparted by the hops. Alcohol is noticable, but not overbearing. Bitterness is medium. Very good effort!
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft: Subdued bread crust and peanut nose. Hazy amber, no head. Nutty peanut and peanut hull flavor. Orange marmelade base. Finish is pencil shavings and cardboard. Full body. Very little hop character, but I’m intrigued by the malt profile and degree to which it has oxidized. I don’t like it so much as a DIPA, but it’s enjoyable and a nice bit of crafting. I wonder how old this is. It drinks like it might be a DIPA where the hops have fallen out of it.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Hazy amber pour with big white head lots of lacing. Citrusy nose and lightly toasted malts. Medium body. Citrus and pine hops with a malty backbone. mild resiny finish.
s’ok nothing too special.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Light pine and caramel aroma. Pine and earth flavor with light grapefruit and malt. Medium bodied. Decent bitterness. Pine and grapefruit lingers with caramel and earthiness.
