12 ounce bottle shared by MaltDawg at the 16th Richmond Ratebeer Gathering, 11/5/11. Pours a hazy peach color with a large frothy head. Good head retention. Aroma of citrus, corn and a chemical twang. The taste is bitter hops with some citrus notes. Astringent. Medium bodied.

Hazy golden coloured body with a thick, dense off-white head. Aroma of fresh citrus hops, a lot of yeast, ton of malt and a nice coriander seed freshness not usually picked up with this style. Medium-bodied; Assertive hoppy flavour at first with a pungent spicey and yeastie kick, then showing more of a wit flavour with a decent amount of hops. Aftertaste shows dryness and a touch hoppy character with a good malt backbone and some serious spicey and yeastie flavours coming through at the end. Overall, a nice and rather different IPA - slightly witty, but definitely still hoppy. A nice American IPA and definitely worth trying if you can find it. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 28-April-2011 for US$1.79 sampled this American beer at home today, after visiting the Pentagon on the ten year anniversary of 9/11, two blocks south of the Pentagon on 11-September-2011. God Bless everyone affected and their families on this occasion.

Bottle. Sour lemon peel and barley malt aroma. Golden yellow color with nice white head. Strong bitter pine/orange peel flavor and light malt flavor. Nice.

On tap at the brewery, Frankenmuth. Clear straw body, thin off-white ring of carbonation. Nose of sharp, bitter citrus rind. Bready body, rather dry, with prominent pine needles and bitter citrus rind. The bready malts provide significant balance. OK.
