Clear amber pour, creamy white head.
Some light pine hops, but the aroma is dominated by caramels malts. Quite bitter, pithy, peppery citrus peel. Lingering dry bitterness, with more sweet malts.

A hazed dark amber DIPA with a thick frothy lacing light mocha head. In aroma, sweet caramel malt with piney floral hops, resinous and smooth, light oxidation and alcohol warmth, still solid. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity caramel malt with grassy floral hops, resinous and piney, light oxidation, treacle , very nice. This was the 9% version made by Rahr & Sons. B

Bottle shared. Dark clear brown, medium tan head. Aroma of coffee grounds and caramel. Taste is moderate smoke and a bit of bacon. Not sure why the smoke is in the flavor and not really in the aroma. This one got good reviews from friends.
