Nov 18, 2009 Sample at the brewpub. Clear amber pour with a medium beige head. Citrusy hop aroma with some malt. Trying to nail down the hop and ruling out Centennial due to the lack of pine and Amarillo because it’s not quite so orangey. Guessing Columbus here. Flavor is citrusy and spicy (like a C-bus and Simcoe blend) with a bit of malt before a lasting bitter hop finish. Good stuff!

Jan 18, 2009 Froma sampler. Huge aroma of citrus hops. Nice taste of grapefruit without the bine bitterness. A very easy drinking IPA.

Jan 4, 2009 Tap, sampler glass.
Light mahogany color, orange/red hues. Ruby grapefruit, tangerine, grass on the nose. Malty hoppy flavor of biting grapefruit, grassy hop. Flowy smooth mouthfeel. With a tangy hop aftertaste. Most enjoyable beer I’ve found at this brewery.

Oct 17, 2008 Growler. Pours a medium amber-brown with a foamy off-white head that diminished quickly. Virtually no lacing.
A great hoppy aroma of grapefruit and pine. Taste of bitter grapefruit with a nice balance of sweet malt. Soft carbonation. Light to medium body with an average finish. Definitely a geat IPA.

Oct 15, 2008 Sampled from a growler. Pours a deep amber color with a fizzy white head. The aroma has a lot of grapefruit, dank nuggs, and a little resiny character. The flavor is a sweet brown sugar with a ton of bitter, but beautifully balanced. Thick and delicious. Such a quality IPA in this hop shortage. Delicious.

Aug 21, 2008 Boy, I hate getting bad kegs to sample. That’s the only conclusion I can come to when I see these other ratings. On tap- nice piney nose....and then.....hops run amuck, and not in a good way. Couldn’t even finish it, too much better beer around.

Jun 17, 2008 Poured a very nice deep clear red color with a froathy offwhite head that lasts a long time. Rustic earthy hop aroma and flavor. Very dry and bitter. Can feel the alcohol burn. Overall, decent.
