This smooth looking beer is aggressively bittered and hopped with the finest hops from the Willamette Valley. This big hop character is supported by equally impressive malt body. IPA is not for the faint of heart. All our hops are purchased directly fro Wolf Family Farms, a fifth generation grower.

From can to glass. Nice artwork led me to grab this. Malty generally, with slight herb and floral aspects. Slightly hazy orange with moderate retained white head. Solid orange in the flavor. I liked this....but it was late in the evening of a nice family visit to KS so maybe the ambiance bumped it slightly.

On tap at Dismal River. Pours a near clear copper with a near white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of pine with a bit of grapefruit and a light grain backbone. Flavor is similar with a nice bitter profile from the pine and grapefruit supported by a touch of bread.

Can. A- Hops, grains, citrus. A- Golden color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Bitter, citrus, sweet corn. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, smooth bitter finish. O- Not as bitter and hoppy as you would expect. Nice citrus tones and very approachable. Plus being in aviation, the spray pilot logo is pretty cool.

Can. Pours cloudy yellow amber with a medium creamy white head and nice lacing. Aroma is citrus, pine, a touch of cat piss, floral notes. Flavor is about the same, light sweet, medium bitter. Light body, watery mouthfeel.

Can. Fresh fruity pineapple-grapefruit hops and light caramel aroma. Hazy yellow-orange with a large off-white head. Grapefruit peel, piney hops, and light malt flavor. Medium body, soft carbonation. For my personal taste, this one could use a little more malt balance.

Pours murky golden yellow with a frothy, off-white head. Grapefruit, orange, peel aroma. Flavour is the same, plus a little piney bitter. Almost creamy feel.... Very nice.
