12 oz. bottle. Pours orange with a small/medium white head. Aroma is not very strong; grapefruit and other citrus hops, plus some sweetness/honey. Taste is some grapefruit, some bitterness, and some spices, all in a pretty even balance. Finish is fairly bitter. I would prefer a little more bitterness and hoppiness in this one, but it’s a good IPA nonetheless.

Sep 5, 2008 Enticing pour with a tan head and a hoppy aroma. Really balanced flavor. Malts and hops intermingle throughout each aspect of the sip.

Sep 4, 2008 Poured a clear brown-amber with a thin and soon-to-depart cream head. Aroma is a potpourri of hops - predominantly citrus. Incredibly sharp grapefruit hops yields to a peppery finish. Hops only teasingly balanced by caramel malt sweetness. Long bitter finish - like a Texas divorce in which custody of a prize smellhound is at stake. Mouthfeel is slightly viscous with medium carbonation. Not for the IPA novice, for sure, but deliciously challenging.

Sep 1, 2008 The name says it all – and I like it. Well bodied ale filled with spicy, citrus hops. Lingering bitterness. A very decent IPA (GBBF, 05.08.2008)
