Art of Neurosis is literally the art of Steve’s neurosis. On of the staples at the brewery, AON was the first big batch that 2nd Shift ever produced and distributed. It actually took brewmaster Steve Crider 47 times to brew this beer before he considered it ready for the main stage.
AON is the first beer I made at the brewery. It is a hop sandwich brewed with Simoce & Columbus Hops, which are the greatest things in the world besides a good smack in the face.

Draft pour pint at Brouwers, Seattle during their 12th anniversary party. All day celebration! Clean, and shiny golden pour with a sticky head and lacing. Tropical heavy hop.aroma. Flavor is thick, juicy hop quality a heavy malt. Clearly a big IPA, that surprises me that it isn’t a clear imperial. Overall a nice IPA. It’s like the guy that absolutely mashes at the AAA level, but never makes it to the big leagues for some reason.

(Thanks, Peter! "phaleslu") Bottle. A- Apricot, peach, mango, bread, grass. A- Orange color, hazy liquid, beige head. T- Stale biscuits, grass, pine, bitter, malty, caramel, stone fruits. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly bitter finish. O- Unique ipa. Not much bitterness other than on the finish. The malts aren’t really caramel forward. Almost more of a stale biscuit with some fruit preserve kind of thing. Not bad.

Hazy golden-orange color with medium head. Deep aroma, animal hop character, some caramel, light wood, almost smoke. Smooth mouthfeel; toffeish caramel flavor, strong yeast character, spicy; strong bitterness too; resiny hops, not fruity, not shining. Astringent in the final.
Not the IPA I expected, but a good beer nevertheless.
