The beer formerly known as Ultra, our double IPA. A nice malt backbone and warming alcohol, take a supporting role to the massive hop bitterness, flavor and aroma. Distinctly American, with Cascade, Simcoe and Columbus hops, 6 different additions during the boil and then the hot wort is strained through 15# of fresh whole hops. If you like hoppy beers give it a try, if you don’t you can probably use it to degrease your engine.

Dark amber color. Beautiful thick white head. Big caramelly milk chocolate nose. Lots of dark cherries and dark fruit. Slightly sour. Warm alcoholic finish. Much more like a BW than an IIPA, but enjoyable.

On tap at Bluegrass, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy hops and biscuity malt, not much of an aroma really. Flavour is along the same lines, with earthy hops, some resins and biscuity malt. A little sticky and resinous on the finish. Not a whole lot of depth to this, but it's okay.

Draught. Pale copper colour, small off-white head. Aroma is caramel, toffee, some fruity and floral notes. Also some honey and nectar. Flavour is very similar, but has a rather strong grassy bitterness to it. Dry palate. Fresh, balanced and smooth.

Tap at 3rd & Main location, Sweet caramel malt, sweet orange, and vanilla aroma. Light amber with a large creamy head, creamy lacing. Sweet caramel malt and orange hops aroma. Full body. Very malt forward, and I would have never guessed it to be a DIPA. Nice.

Very hazy dark amber beer, small cream coloured head. Softish palate. Sweet creamy malt. Aniseed alcohol. A little marmalde hops. Drinkable but really needs more hops and less obvious alcohol,.

On tap at Mikkeller. It pours a clear, amber body and a finger-thick, dense, off-white head leaving lacings. The aroma is sugary, malty and lightly peachy, witha faint note of licorice, fennel maybe, and some alcohol whiffs. Sweetness, fruit-caramel, peach notes and resins in the flavor, along with a decent bitterness. Full-bodied and almost sticky, yet it feels dryish. Warming too. Dry, piney and bitter finish. Overall, too sweet, but at least it has enough bitterness to prevent if from being cloying. 110528
