Tap at Brouwer’s. Pours medium orange with a fine white head. Mild fruity, lightly sour aroma. Flavor is lightly fruity, lightly spicey and somewhat lightly earthy. Not strongly flavored. But a nice drink.

On tap at TCBF, pours clear copper orange. Aroma of hops, grapefruit, and caramel malts. Flavour of heavy caramel malts, citrus hops and a bit of a cloying fruity sweetness. Needs more hops and less sweetness, but still a good one.

On tap at TCBF, pours golden / copper. Generic hoppy flaovur, quite muted, with citrus and a decent caramel malty backbone. Alright.

Can courtesy of bvc. Pours clear copper with tan head. The aroma is full floral and spicy hops to go along with some resiny pine hops and black tea off in the background. The taste is just as spicy and pine resiny as the nose drumming up a pleasing flavor sensation with the help of some malts, earthiness and black tea.

Shared with ibrew2or3. thanks Dave. can version orange, off-white nice citrus hops, resiny/piney with a thick mouthfeel, mild grapefruit with some underlying pale malts adding with the hops an interesting mild bitter palate. Found the finish to be rather dry.

This was given to me by a friend while on vacation in Portland, OR; consumed while relaxing in Renton, WA. First off, the title and artwork on the can is fantastic. As for the beer, it’s a good DIPA. It’s got a caramel finish and has a good balance of hops & malt. It’s also very smooth, but it does have a bite that should be there with an 8% ABV beer. Very glad I consumed!

Can from Whidbey Beer Works. Pours light copper with a 3 finger foamy off-white head. Aroma is floral over light caramel. Medium body with foamy carbonation. Flavor is very light caramel, almost pale malt, with some mild florality. Finish is quite dry. Bitter is not strong. It’s arguably over the pond stuff. Drinks well.

Can from Whidbey Beer Works. This can was a bit sticky after the flight back home, so leaks may be common. Certainly not drops, just sticky. Pours ruddy copper with a four finger foamy beige head. Aroma is resin. Medium plus body with lots of foamy/creamy carbonation. It’s lush. Smooth roast malt backbone with a load of resin bitter. But it’s smooth. Not harsh. Goes down a treat.

16 oz pint can, purchased at the Beer Authority in Lake City, Seattle. A little bit of gunk seemed to have seeped out of the top lid. Pour is almost entirely clear golden orange with a well formed two inch white head the falls slowly with foam and lacing. Aroma is mild cereal grain, along with soft floral hop and a whisper of lemon sourness. Mostly clean, the seepage did not seem to impact the nose. Taste is the toasted cereal grain, along with some breadiness and the floral hop character of the nose. Finishes dry, almost dusty. A touch of the sour shows up in the aftertaste, and disappears completely as it warms. Palate is medium, a bit mouth coating, nice prickly carbonation. This has a nice drinkable body to it, nice.
