3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle - Citrus and some pine nice malt sweetness. Clear gold with a thin white head. Hit of bitterness and bit of booze, pine and a nice malt backbone. Medium body and some tropical fruit in the mix. Overall a nice 2IPA.
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Honey blossom, orange, and bubblegum aroma. Overly translucent, mostly straightforward yellow. Too fuckin easy to drink for a double, and carrying the aroma right through to the palate! Small, crisp, expanding bubbles that attempt a velcro sort of relationship with the tongue. Incredibly well balanced too; all the crisp aggression of the hops, held up by the stem of perfect malted thorniness.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Small white head with shards of lace; clear, pale orange-copper beer, well-carbonated. Fruity nose with grapefruit, lytchee, passion fruit and muscat; also succade. Quite bitter, and also similarily fruity. Citruspeel, succadehints if not sweet. Hopoils abundant; bit of cookies, again all but bereft of sweetness. Something of green tea too. Well-carbonated, medium bodied, and quite slidk. Refreshing despite the oils. Nice DIPA.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
12 oz. Bottle from 6 pk bottle in 1/21/13. Pours a cloudy golden color with a white 1 finger head, good sticky lacing.
A: a slight hop presence with plenty of caramel malt (is the beer past it’s prime? )
M:Chewy, thick caramel malt followed by a slight piney hop bite. Wonder if age of beer may be knocking down the presence of hops. Not bad but will probably ne better when more fresh. Good brew nonetheless.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours dark gold with a quickly dissipating head. Bright mandarin and lemon nose. Mouthfeel is thick without being syrupy. Malts stand up and compete with the earthy hops at first but then the bright piney notes take over and leave a pleasant fresh hoppy finish.
---That dog will hunt!

3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Gold in color. Sweet soapy aroma like Irish Spring. Bitter citrus flavor like the pith followed by a cereal note like Chex. Overall, decent... Glad to have sampled.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a clear orangish yellow with a large creamy white head and decent amount of lacing. Aroma of pine, melon, grapefruit, floral, citrus and malt. Taste is strong of exotic fruit and rich malts, pine, rye, and grapefruit. Very bitter, robust, and heavy. Not nearly as hoppy as I was hoping. Long finish of strong malts and hop bitterness. Creamy texture and pretty high carbonation that stings the tongue and mouth. Overall good, but not great.
