Jul 3, 2008 On-tap at the brewpub. Pours cloudy dark orange, almost brown with a very thin white head, specks of lace. Smells subdued earthy hoppy. Tastes bitter and hoppy, very damn bitter in fact. Some sweet malt flavor toward the finish and bitter through the finish as well. Bit of dishtowel flavor as well. Medium body, good carbonation.

Taste is sweet and hoppy and nice really lingers in the mouth.

Apr 15, 2007 Big nose of hops, hops and MORE hops. Some nice spice and malt notes also come forward. Big mouthfeel that needs to be scraped off of the tongue. Clean and dry finish.

Dec 23, 2006 Tap @ The Bistro’s IPA Festival 8/6/05. A cloudy amber color with a nice mint, anise and floral flavor that was quite unexpected. Almost medicinal in aroma. Smooth but not dry, malty but also fairly light.
