Oct 6, 2009 Pours a medium-dark amber with a 2 finger head. Caramel on the nose with some citrus hops. Very smooth with a nice bitter finish and near perfect carbonation. Not the hop monster I was hoping it would be, but very well done and very drinkable.

Oct 4, 2009 Whoa! This is a great beer. Very well done. Served with a nice, light tan to cream colored, foamy, frothy head and good lace. Color is a lovely medium amber with copper highlights. Aroma is mostly earthy hops with a touch of citrus and some caramel malt to balance. Flavor’s the same along with some grain. Body is quite good, a bit chewy and good carbonation. Finish is mostly hoppy a touch sweet especially at the very end. Slightest hint of alcohol if you think about it. Well done Brothers! Session beer.

Sep 3, 2009 Pours amber with 3 fingers white head. Aroma is hoppy, pretty nice. Decent hop flavor, enjoyable though flavor is a little too clean and not terribly complex.

Aug 4, 2009 One of my favorite local beers from the midwest, two brothers make great tasting beer with a smooth finish. This is no exception - smooth all the way through and a strong but not overwhelming hoppy flavor. If you can find it - it is a great beer to try for yourself.

Jul 4, 2009 Bottle, lot 2678. Pours an orange-amber body with generous orange-tan head. Aroma of grapefruit hops, orange citrus, and caramel malts. Flavor is a bit on the malty side for an IPA; I mainly tasted caramel and sweet malts with a hint of butterscotch and hops. Light hop finish with a leather flavor. Medium bodied with an oily mouthfeel.

Jun 29, 2009 12oz bottle. Orange-brown color, with a massive head. Dry, astringent hop aroma. Lots of fruity hop tastes, from earthy to hardcore tropical grapefruit. The wet hopping really smooths the bitter hops out, making it more thick and full versus dry and sharp. Certainly a top-notch IPA, way better than average.

Jun 24, 2009 Lot 2678. Murky reddish orange with a mongo foamy tan head that takes too darn long to go down. Aroma is earthier than I’d expect from an IPA with caramel, citrus and some grain mixed in. Full bodied beer is well balanced with some crystal malt mixed in with orange, citrus and pine. Moderate bitterness on the back end that’s got a touch of sweetness to it as well.
