This one poured a dark orange color. Some orange peels, tangerines, and lemons in the nose. Mainly lemons and oranges are showing up in the flavor with a hint of pine. This one has a nice malt backbone to it. The finish is rather bitter. Overall this was a nice IIPA.

Clear gold light gold color with no head. Lively carbonation. Oily citrus aroma. Rich resiny citeus hop flavor. This was gooood.

hazy orange. no head. hop aroma. flavor is extremely hoppy and dry . like drinking raw hop resin squeezed into a glass....yea.

Pours lovely hazey orange. Aroma is of wet forrest, hops, malts. Flavour was of a smooth IIPA, hops, malts with a tropical fruit character. My first MS beer, and I was impressed.

YEHA. Lightly hazy orange in color. Aroma is quite hoppy with floral and citrus, some catty quality. Taste is very hoppy, and overall pretty dry with orange, pineapple, floral, and a light pale malt sweetness. Bitterness lingers well after the finish.

Pours a clear golden color. The hop aroma is awesome, just awesome here. Butter, citrus and pine. Big bitter hop flavor as well. Little sweetness is nice. No sugar bomb action here. There’s some grapefruit and citrus flavors here as well. Very nice one.

Clear orange bronze with a thin, wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of fresh grapefruity hops with some light crystal malty sweetness. Body starts semi-sweet and caramely with some earthy grapefruity bittering hops toward a drier, bittersweet and slightly warming finish. A pretty good IIPA.

22oz Bottle Pours out a nice amber topped with a cream off white head. A very nice aroma of citrus hops. Tast of sweet caramell and more great hops. A pretty nice 2IPA. Thanks Jordan

(22oz bottle, thanks kmweaver) Small beige head atop lightly hazed amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, orange/floral, light caramel. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit/orange. Sharp bitterness, very one-dimensional. Medium-full body, some acidity.
