Tap at stags head in honor of IPA thread today. Pours dusty brownish orange. Nose is earthy and of tropical fruit. Tastes of pineapple, peach, mango, earthy, rye spice, pine and caramel. Palate is nice full mouthfeel. Lingeringinh finish

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a hazy copper colored body giving a one finger white foamy speckled head that lasted for a good minute before it concaved into the body lightly and slowly. The body was too dark for any carbonation to be seen rising.
The smell had rye malts up front with some light hoppy notes giving a wonderful spicy scent.
The taste brought these flavorings back boldly with some light caramel undertones.
The palate had a medium with nothing harsh on the tongue, just an overall great feel.
Overall, I really liked this beer and would have it again if I lived in its distro.

Amber with a large off-white head. Smells of bread and grapefruit. Tastes of soapy pine and grapefruit.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, best before 1/15/2014. Pours lightly hazy orange amber color with a 2 finger dense cream colored head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, orange zest/rind, floral, grass, pine, rye, toast, caramel, and floral earthiness. Very nice aromas with good complexity of hop notes and moderate malt balance; with good strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, orange zest, floral, grass, light pine, caramel, rye, toast, and floral earthiness. Fair amount of pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peace, floral, grass, caramel, toast, rye, and floral earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity of hop flavors with prominent malt backbone; with fairly crisp malt/bitterness balance and no cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a moderately creamy, and fairly crisp/sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very nice rye IPA. All around good complexity and balance of juicy hop and moderate malt flavors; and very smooth to drink. A very enjoyable offering.

Sampled at Rattle N Hum, NYC. Pours hazy dark golden with an off white head. Aroma of rye, peach, caramel malt and grapefruit. Flavour is moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
