Reviewed from notes.
Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: somewhat of a dark golden to bronze color with a one finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: piney hops, light sweet to tart berry character; some sugared plums, dark bread and the light toasted white bread
Flavor: some sweet to tart to bitter blended character through the prior noted aromas; light finish of the pine, berries and white bread
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; some smoothness but also some dryness
Overall: what an odd beer, it's as if it wanted to be some sort of Belgian but didn't have the strength to be there or any true Belgian attributes then this didn't really seem to want to be an IPA. Definitely leaves me scratching my beard on this one. Then oddly enough, it all seemed to somewhat fit together on top of it.

On Tap at BitterCreek, Boise Fairly clear deep golden witha dense fine off white head. Medium upfront piney hop aroams. Resinous and piney hop flavors. Moderate full body and a smooth finish. Some woody malt bite at the end.
