Bottle. Pours a dark dolden color with a longlasting slightly off-white head. Malty hoppy grapefruit aroma. Malty fresh hoppy grapefruit flavor. Has a nice fruity malty hoppy grapefruit finish with a bitter aftertaste.

12 oz. bottle purchased at Bottleworks in Seattle, WA - enjoyed with tjthresh. Pour is orange with a dirty white head. Aroma is sweet citrus with some earthy grassiness. Taste is a nice blend of malt and hops - more of the citrus sweetness. Tastes like a fresh orange. Medium palate with a bitter finish. Very fresh tasting, and a very tasty IPA.

Dark amber colour. Fresh citrus nose (calamansi, Korean sugarbomb mandarins) with crystal malt/breadcrust in the background. Quite frankly, the bright top note contrasts the malts a bit too much. Both elements are more rounded on the palate, however. The bright papaya and kumquat notes work well with toasty, earthy, woody malt complexity.

Bottle at Freaking Frog, Las Vegas
Beautiful amber color. Very nice hoppy aroma, resiny, strong. Good body structure, but less sweet than expected, then suddenly the hop resins kick in and lead to a long final. Very hopped IPA (I would like it sweeter).

12 oz. bottle. Smell under the cap is more malty than hoppy, bit of a surprise there. But hops come out when I pour into a shaker, bitter and piney. Older copper penny color with a spongy head. Hops are more upfront in the taste, almost a scorcher of bitterness. Makes me think of the Bell’s Hop Smash I had last night, though I’m sure it’s nowhere near that many IBUs. Quite bitter, maybe to the detriment of hop character, a bit earthy, with some orange rind peeping out at the end. Malt is just slightly sticky, the kind I always fall back on "caramel" to describe. But the only room for possible fault comes in the choice of how the hops are presented. May be too crude for some, but I find myself liking it. This was from a variety 12-pack, I think $15 in Kenosha, meaning this is probably a bargain for a good IPA at its home state.

12oz Bottle Pours out a nice amber topped with a great off white head. Very nice aroma of hops along with some sweetness. (maybe like a dry hop) Tast is once again nice hops a little bitter. A nice IPA from MT

Bottle. Fruity aroma with some traces of pine and hops. Malt sweetness with much hoppiness like a good IPA. Lingering hop finish with a bit of metal for which a demerit. Overall a drinkeable IPA.

At The Happy Gnome during the RBSG 2007 Pub Crawl. Clear amber body with a small white head. Floral hops aroma. Sharp citrus hops flavor with some light caramel.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, dark, warm, amber golden with an off-white head. Lightly floral hop aroma. Medium body with some caramel notes, but otherwise completely dominated by dry and lightly fruity aroma hops leaving some bitterness. 290307

Surprisingly good and the first beer from this brewer to impress me. Powerful hop aroma with lots of vegetables. Dark brown beer. The flavor has more hops and it is good, but not as good as the very nice hop aroma lead me to believe. Still, a good ipa.
