Caramel and piney hops. A hint of rust. Pours hazy amber with pretty good head retention. Bitter and slightly tangy, malty finish. Good for style. Some lemon. Bottle from mixed sixpack.

OK, so I must confess, since I am the first RB rater; I could care less for IPA hops so if you like IPA, you may want to put this on yer bucket list; its terribly on style. It pours reddish orange. Has a muted IPA perfumed hop nose. Some co2, makes it tolerable. Mouth-coating bitter hops. Big ass bitter, knock you down, taste bud impressions. Ruins yer taste buds for quite a while. Rude. Nasty Nellie. Pale lager lovers will hate this but I got a bottle pretty cheap so I thot I'd tick it. And, at 9%, I was hoping it would dull my senses from my daily worries-and it did. Quite boozy. Thanks FD, hehehehh.
