3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Tap @ Sun Up. Pours a dark golden orange appearance with an off white head. Spicy, somewhat herbal, piney hoppy, grapefruity aroma. Fairly malty, light caramel, sweet, citrusy hoppy flavor. Flavor was a bit disappointing but still not bad.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft @ Sun Up. Clear amber/orange with a small white head. Aroma of caramel malt with pine, citrus and herbal hops. Flavor is sweet caramel malt with a medium hop bitterness and some fruity yeast esters. Medium body with a slightly rough mouth feel. Probably great when fresh but this one seemed a bit old.

Citrus, grass, herbs, alcohol, leaves, bread, cereal, floral, spruce, dough, great flavor
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cask. I had this on cask, which I think is unfair :o) This is smooth. Semi-sweet finish -- toffee and hops. Somewhat of a garlic bite. I liked it though. I could have another of this especially versus what other beers they offer.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft at brewpub. Not much on the nose. Pours orange with a bit of head. Doesn’t have much lacing. Fairly inert on the tongue. Pretty boring.

Orange pour with creamy tan head and lace. Resiny hops and sweet caramel malt aroma. Caramel malt, bread, and resiny hops bitter. Medium full bodied with creamy carbonation. A well balanced beer. pretty nice.

(On draught at SunUp). Pours a clear copper color with tan head and nice carbonation. Aroma has some citrus, pine and some caramel. Taste has balanced sweetness and pleasant bitterness. Medium bodied with a sticky texture. Bitter finish. A nice, solid IPA with great balance.
3.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at the brewery. I don’t know if my nose wasn’t working properly or if this beer just doesn’t have much smell, but I couldn’t pick up anything but malts. It’s a copper color with a thin white head. Taste is really malty for an ipa, a little too much for my taste, but is also piny. This beer is slightly above average at best, but it being a local brew brings it up a few notches for me.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
on tap-pours an off white head with trailing lace and gold color. Aroma is citrus-grapefruit/tangerine/pine. Taste is pine/citrus-grapfruit/tangerine hops with drying bite, some light malt.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Nice copper color with no real lasting head. Decent aroma but a bit lacking. Flavor is nice earthy piney hops and just a bit of malt to back it up. Really nice ups with a decent kick.
