Mar 8, 2009 Had a musty, almost body odor aroma. This turned me off to it right away, and the extreme hoppyness didn’t aide in this either.

Feb 11, 2009 12 fl. oz. bottle, shared by Lubiere (merci!), served cold in a goblet. JA11/09.
App.: Hazy amber with a smallish white froth.
Aroma: Spicy, peppery, piney C-hops, bitter orange marmalade, sweet caramalts, a slight bit of funk, light apricot.
Palate: Medium body and fairly soft carbonation.
Flav.: Spciy, peppery, green pine hops, some clove and nutmeg, less citrus, more apricot/fruit; dry (surprisingly) with good bitterness and a hint of tang.
Nice stuff – a great showcase for Cascade!

Feb 9, 2009 Solid IPA but nothing mind-blowing. Copper color with a white head. Aroma of Cascade hops really stands out. Good caramel malt flavor with C-hops, but a little too watery on the finish. Really drinkable though.
