This beer has a great aroma and a great head that disappears slowly. It is deep bronze in color. Great flavor, a spectacular IPA.
3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
On nitro @ Sixgill. Pours dark golden amber with thick creamy nitro head. Aroma is a bit dominated by the nitrogen, but plenty of earthy hop flavors come through. Taste is lightly roasty caramel malt with with well-balanced mild but assertive hop finish. Notes of earthy grass and mineral stand out amongst the hops. Not sure the nitro is the best for this beer... definitely a nice creamy mouthfeel but the hops seem quite a bit muted from other times I’ve had this from the bottle.

Great hoppy amber IPA. Strong hops aftertaste. Aroma is hops and grass. Delicious be for the memorial day weekend.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Tap at Reuben’s. Pours a clear burnt copper with fine khaki head. Decent retention and some thin lacing. Aroma is hoppy, resinous, skunky, with a mild malt background. Flavor is mildly malty up front, fading quickly into bitter, hoppy, soapy tones with a malty, nutty finish. Bitter resinous aftertaste. Not a big fan of the hop profile, which seems to be more bitter than anything, no real hop flavor. Maltier than I recall. A solid IPA.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
12 oz bottle. Pours copper color with medium head that stays awhile and moderate lacing. Aroma of pine and malts. Taste bold and bitter up front but balances rather quickly with malts. Above average.
----Hophaze out
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours copper colored and clear with off white head. Medium lacing. Lots of hops in the nose, pear, honey and toasty malts. Taste is big hop flavor, very bitter at first but the toasted malt comes through and lingers for a full bodies finish. Awesome, spicy big and flavorful ups.
