Hazy orange yellow color with very thin lacing. Piney and resiness aroma. Medium full body that is balanced with a finish that is not too bitter. Good for a ten ounce pour.

Dogbrick (6058) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - SEP 24, 2012
Sample at Saddle Rock in Wenatchee, WA. The beer is a hazy amber-orange color with a medium off-white head that diminishes slowly. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops, pine and malt. Full-bodied with a resiny hops character and flavors of grapefruit and toasted malt in the background. The finish is bitter with a lingering hoppy aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Wow. Watch out for this one. Very drinkable ipa at 9.3%. Slight hop aroma with just enough hop bite to leave me wanting more

Clear orange-amber good lacing with a small white head. Smell is floral, hoppy, citrus, and caramel. Taste is of caramel, hops, and a bit citrus. Ends nicely bitter and a little dry.
