From a pint can. Pours a clear gold with a frothy white head. Aromas are of pine and grass. Flavors are bitter citrus.

On tap at the Southern New Hampshire Brewers Festival 7/26/2013 Clear medium gold, nice hop presence with a sweet bready back bone. Nice brew.

Burnt orange Simcoe and warrior on the nose. A hint of citra. Nice grapefruit and tangerine. There’s a lot of pine cone and resin. Some maltiness which is a surprise for the abv.

Hazey light brown. 1 finger head subsides fast. More of citra. Love that the brewer uses a lot of citra. Excellent tropical and grapefruit scent but it's a little too light. Nice! The taste is rocking. Very smooth. Hunt of sweetness. Decent malt backbone. 70% carbonation on mouth swish.

on tap-pours a white head and amber color. Aroma is mild grain, hint of herbal hops. Taste is mild grain, secondary herbal hops.

Copper in color, small lasting head. Bold nose of floral and grassy / grapefruity nose. Lively mouthfeel. Kind of slick oily texture. Hops are alive with citrus and pine. Only one other beer I liked more on this sampling trip to the pub. Well worth a full pint.

A lightly hazed orange amber ale with a thin off white head. A good restrained fragrant hops aroma, with meaty notes, grapefruits, classy. In mouth, a good Impy with oily malt and c-hops, grapefruits and warming alcohol. Rich and chamring. On tap at brewpub, Dec. 27 2009.
