3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bomber. Nose is resinous and spicy. Flavor is more of the same, with more malt than the nose, a touch of peaches, and what I’ve come to know as the ’classic’ dark wood Moylans finish that bombs the upper palate with bittereness. Not like the all-out assualt of hopsickle, but quite woody. 1/4 of the bottle was sacrificed as a deglaze for an enchilada sauce and in that capacity, it was very, very apropos. Good - nothing overly special.

On cask at pony bar NYC. Very astrigent and oily ipa. Bitter florals and tangarine and grapefruit. Nose of florals and stinging nectar. Nice

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
From a 22-oz brown bottle, pours a solid dark gold color with a fine bubble head. Hoppy (piney) aroma, medium body, hop flavor and bitterness barely dominate the malt. Slight caramel character and sweetness. Very drinkable.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours orange with thick white head. Aroma of has slight notes of piney hops. There is some age in this one. Minimal hops noted and overwhelmed with malt. Would like to try again.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sweet malt, grapefruit, and grass aroma. Cloudy, golden-orange, white head with faint lacing. Grapefruit, mild caramel, smoke, and herbal flavour notes. Full bodied, balanced, with medium lasting bitterness.
3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
22 oz bottle pours hazy gold with bubbly white head and good lacing. Very earthy pine with lemon and orange, with touch of funk. Mild vanilla taste followed by little funk and slow dry finish. Very flavorful but not the best flavors. As it warms the caramel comes out more, but so does the nasty sweat flavor and aroma. This is not good for the style. I reiterate that this is flavorful but not quite what I want and not very drinkable.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a medium sized head of medium sized white colored bubbles that were and left behind a hazy with with yeast swirls typically carbonated dark orange colored body. The aroma was hoppy. The mouth feel was very tingly at the start and at the heated finish with strong biting hoppy aftertaste. The strong flavor contained notes of hops and mild spice. Delicious and one I would certainly buy again. Lots of hops in this one!
