3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Half Time. Pours dark amber with a foamy beige head. For me the aroma is floral with a hint of resin. Medium body with foamy carbonation. Flavor is roasted malt with a lot of hop - floral/citrus/pine? More floral. Finishes nicely bitter. Better than many.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
yellowish orange color with a good amount of hops and an intensely bitter flavor this beer is an excellent offering of a good ol american IPA
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Huge piny hop nose with lots of citrus - big-time PNW scent out of a NY brewery. Very heavily dry hopped. Dark orange pour lets light through, fluffy tan head does not. Taste is surprisingly bitter (on the strong side of IPAs), bone-dry without any resin, and a good mix of pine and caramel. Light soap and light grapefruit/citrus. Fullish body. Place this one squarely into the ’aggressive’ IPA category.

Draft at the brewery, This one surprised me, much better than i expected. Copper color, healthy dose of cascade hops & caramel malts in the aroma. Taste had a good amount of bitterness, well rounded & balanced. Id go back to this
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
On draft at the brewery. I don’t know if it’s because I’m drinking this so fresh at the source, but this is a very nice IPA. I’ll have to pick it up in a 6-pack and give it a try over time. But fresh this is a nice resiny, piney, citrusy IPA.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
The color is a somewhat cloudy shade of amber. Nice amount of head.
Has a nice understated hop aroma, with something else. Can’t quite tell what it is, but maybe honey? It’s got a heavier flavor than most IPAs and a richness I can’t put my finger on.
Pleasant enough balance of malts and hops. The hops are there, but definitely not dominant. I would prefer a little more hoppage, but I could probably drink more consecutively without it.
It’s thick and a little creamy. Heavier than usual, but leaves a pleasant aftertaste.
It’s a good beer, but not one I would buy a case of. Worth checking out in a mixed six-pack (which is how I got it).
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Deep amber in color with a white head. Not much of a head, minimal lacing. Flavor is actually quite good. A nice hop bite with some pine flavor....fading away into a nice caramel sweetness. Not much of a sharp finish, goes down very easy. Would buy this again.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear amber hue with a medium white head and sticky lacing. The aroma is caramel, rich citrus hops. The flavor is nice; caramel and earthy malts, bitterness, English hops, light tropical fruit and bitter in the finish. Nice. Easygoing.
