On Tap. Not a huge fan of IPA’s, but this one is worth a try. A frutiy hoppy scent is present. Very hoppy tasting, but not overwhelmingly bitter or yeasty. Makes Victory Hop Devil seem fairly pedestrian. Very smooth flavor which is easy to drink despite the alcohol content.

Jan 4, 2009 Tulip from Oak Cask (Sharp Edge, Pgh)
Cloudy pink tea color in the glass, with a fluffy clingy head. Muted smooth hop aroma, pink grapefruit with some muted oak character. Smooth on the tongue, less bitey than it is from the bottle non-cask. Critrus and green wood in the mouth, watery palate with a bitter tangy aftertaste. Great beer on cask..or anyway you can get it.

Jan 4, 2009 Thanks to Daknole for the bottle. Pours a hazy amber orange with a one inch white fluffy head. Great retention and lacing. Aromas of pine and resin with a light malt touch, bread. Flavors upfront of malts, with a nice hop finish, but bitterness is minimal.

Dec 26, 2008 12oz bottle. Poured a murky burnt orange with a one finger head. Smell is strong floral and hoppiness with slight sweet hint. Taste hits with complex hop flavor with citrus that mellows to a nice malty sweetness. Mouthfeel is very easy. A very good hop beer

Dec 23, 2008 Bottle from trade with Butters. Poured amber with a creamy off-white head that left light lace. Nice caramel and hop citrus aroma. The flavor found orange peel and a malt balance. Medium body, crisp, medium bitterness. Very nice!
