Draft->juice glass (tasting@winery): Pours a small, off-white head atop of a dark amber body. Aroma of heavy toasted grain,with some soapiness about the yeast, followed up by a butter aroma. The palate is medium, gritty, and the carbonation is flat, with the finish bitter. The duration of the flavor is long and is moderately acidic and bitter. A very good IPA by a very small brewery.

Copper pour with off white head and lace. Medium hop aroma with hints of sweet malt. Medium bitter on the front and a solid hard bitter finish. Carbonation and mouthfeel are good as well. Solid all round beer.

Pours a copper color with a white head. Aroma is malty, caramel, slightly fruity, and citrus hops. Flavor is malty, caramel, biscuit, and a bitter citrus finish.

Tap. Pours a deep gold with a very slight head. Aroma has sweet and fruity notes in there. Taste is slight sweetness up front, slight bitterness in the back, and a watery finish. I was let down by this one.

Bottle…Thinkin’ ‘Bout Thirteen Hours O’ Drinkin’ (tew man wrecking crew)... Clear, deep golden ale with little to no head. The aroma offers notes of toffee, caramel, grapefruit and cotton candy. Full-bodied and oily with fizzy carbonation. Very lightly acidic. Modest caramel sweetness precedes medium grapefruit pith bitterness. Lengthy, bitter finish. Bottle provided by mgumby10!

Handbottle courtesy of Miver. Pours a fairly clear amber, with a small off white head. Smells of citric hops and a balancing malt presence, as well as some citrus fruit as well. Theflavor was also really well balanced with a perfect amount of hop bitterness, spicy pepper, and grapefruit all mixed in together nicely. The pepper really lingers in the aftertaste giving it a nice sharp bite. Had some good flavor going on here. Enjoyed this.
