Dry, extremely piney hop aroma, the highlight of the beer for me. Malty and dry flavor with a hint of diacetyl. Not much bitterness to speak of. Weak finish, somewhat bland and...yucky, for lack of a better word. Lacking carbonation.

Nov 29, 2007 Pours dark golden/amber with a mostly receding light tan head Aroma of grassy English hops, woody, and fruity esters. Taste is grass, meaty hops, and herbal notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied, slightly resinous with lively carbonation.

Aug 1, 2007 On tap at Rich O’s Publick House when I stopped on the way to Dark Lord Day.
This pours with a very clear gold body under a thin white head.
Malt dominates the aroma.
The flavor is slightly bitter with a good support from the malt.
Soft carbonation, easy drinking.

Jul 14, 2007 Pours brown/orange with a minor head. Aroma of caramel, fruit, and chocolate. Moderate mouth feel with a strong hop bitterness. Caramel and fruit undertones carry the hops in a wonderful way. Great IPA!
