I went there tonight to get the Jockey Full of Bourbon, which was already out :( The Kickass is..well pretty kickass. Pours amber with a medium white head. Nice citrus and pine aroma. Pine and citrus dominate the flavor as well. Oily mouthfeel, but still very enjoyable. I should have picked up some Pizza also.

Pour is ruddy golden with a thin off white head...smell is toasty and sweet with lots of pine and grapefruit...tast is faintly sweet with a great grapefruity bitterness coming through at the end...excellent!

On tap at the brewpub. Pours dark amber with a medium white head. Has a very green hop aroma to it. Just delightful. Very citrusy and pine-like in scent. The flavor is like sucking on a half of hop grapefruit. Medium thick body seems to support this level of hops adequately without suppressing anything with the sweetness of too much malt. This is a really GOOD brewpub IPA.

draft at brewpub. hard to see. dark red toffee with decent opacity. smell is all grapefruit hops. and some hard candy. taste is very malty sweet, most of the flavor is from the hops. super fruity. like hard rock candy. super mild and drinkable.

This was a quite bitter glass of beer. Reminiscent of amarillo brillo, but more bitter. needs some more malt perhaps, but overall, a quaffable pint.
