Bottle. Pours a dark amber brown with a medium frothy head that lasts. This beer is not really big in the aroma department. Heavy malt, slight dirty mouth feel, a bit coppery.

Heavy bitterness. On-tap at Town Hall in Minny, and appropriately carbonated by them. Medium orange body with bubbly head and noticeable lace. This is wet-hopped and I feel the high IBU. Hop heads rejoice. Full-mouthfeel, and you can detect hops in the aroma.

On tap at the Alchemy in Madison: Pours a cloudy copper colour with a huge white head. ARoma is super hopped, floral, with noticeable pine and grapefruit notes. Taste is very crisp, chewy and citrusy all in one.

Draft at the Tap Room in Warrenville. Medium amber hue with full, white lace and little head. Citrusy, light grapefruit, orange rind, with floral & pine notes which follow to flavor. A bit of malt sweetness with the fruit, but blanketed nicely by the hop dryness throughout. A very representative IPA

Surprised to see how brown it poured. More malty than some. Nicely hopped and carbonated. Thanks to Piscator for the sample

12oz bottle....pours a dark caramel brown with a thin circular film of soapy white head... aroma of subdued caramel malt, soap, and honeydew? somethings awry but still somewhat greenlike... flavors of sweet caramel, green vegetables, slightly bitter. hard to tolerate.

Lot 2687. Aroma is nicely hopped and sweat. Appearance is a deep amber almost brown. The flavor is classic centennial hop all the way. The palate is that nice grippy IPA mouthful.

Draft at capones. Pours an amber body with a thin white lacing. Pine, hop resins, grapefruity. Light malty sweetness to balance this one. Simple fresh hopped flavors. Decent brew.
