COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
What's in a name? The brewer's mantra, "more hops," is taken as far as possible in this beer. A deep amber body balances the bitterness and makes that long day at work seem a distant memory. Just ask for a pint of "the dank!!" This beer is also dry hopped with whole flower, Cascade hops.

Amber-golden in color with nice soft white head. Light fruity hop aroma. Very balanced malt/hop flavor and the finish is nice and hoppy.

DrinkEmUpJones (510) - Georgia, USA - OCT 4, 2011
Cloudy amber in color with off white head. This beer has a medium light wet grain aspect. A very mellow and easy drinking palate. This beer might go down too easily. Good but not anything special.

FunkyBrewster (1312) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 30, 2011
On tap at the brewpub. Pours a deep golden almost amber with a small off white head. Aroma surprised me, quite fresh citric and lightly piney hops, really bursting, with plenty of sweet caramel malts. Flavor is also nice with an aggressive hop presence along with the sweet bready caramel malts. Finishes clean, a bit sweet with some lingering bitterness. Medium body and a moderate carbonation. Nice fresh beer

Snojerk321 (2954) - San Diego, California, USA - AUG 28, 2011
Tap @ the brew pub. Pour is clears dark golden amber, with a modest off white head in this glass. Aromas are florals and citrus, really, with a bit of caramels and toast. The brew seems to mesh your american pale and amber, color aside.

Clear copper with a creamy off white head. Good citrus hops aroma and a smooth toasty toffee taste with a silky palate and a good bitter finish.

adnielsen (3098) - Denver, Colorado, USA - MAY 21, 2011
On tap @ MS Boulder. Red orange appearance with a orange tan head. Medium pine, organic, light citrus hoppy nose. Somewhat bitter, resiny, organic, earthy hoppy, fairly malty nose. Smooth APA with lots of flavor while still a bit less hoppy than an IPA.

rougeau13 (1061) - Texas, USA - APR 17, 2011
Deep, hazy amber with an off whte head.Aroma of pine citrus and caramel. Taste is good, but could use a touch more fullness.

EithCubes (3042) - GERMANY - MAR 19, 2011
Draught at the Southern Sun. Golden-amber body, lightly hazy. Surprisingly bitter for an amber with soapy hops. Again, bitter Cascades and leafy greens. Medium body, definitely a palate cleanser.
