On draught at the brewhouse. Pours and orange-gold with off-white head. Aroma is of massive pine. Flavor is all hops with some nice citrus in addition to the pine. Nice bitterness, and the alcohol is well-hidden in this balanced DIPA.

On draught at the brewhouse. Very earthy aroma with a great yeasty funk - seems like a Belgian yeast. Solid full bitter finish, but the hops are barely noticeable.

Draft. Was called Rye Knockers by the bar, but I’m guessing it’s this beer. Golden-amber beer with a cream head. Light earth and light pine aroma. Pine and spice flavor with earth and malt. Medium-plus bodied. Pine and earth lingers with light grapefruit. Lots of rye in this one.
