Bottled, early 2k9 vintage. Pours a darkish cloudy amber with small dissipating head. Aroma is floral and hoppy. Taste is a bit bitter and woody. This guy might need some more time to age.

I thought this was a brown ale. Oh well. Draft at waterfront. Dark. Pleasant, not as hoppy as promised

Bottled. A pretty darned good IPA. Pours gold w/creamy head, bitter as hell, w/some citrus. A good IPA but not too extreme.

Not a huge fan of the mega-hops style but pretty good. Pours gold w/white head, strong hops, alcohol flavors predominate.

Bottle. Pours dark, dark, dark. I mean really dark. Smallish head. Chocolatey aroma with rich flavor. Shockingly, not super heavy, IMO, a very good Imperial Russian.

7 week old can
A: Crystal clear pale gold with a short, quick head.
S: Light sweetish floral and toasty aroma.
T: Fairly bitter and dry with toasty and citrusy notes. Not quite seltzery.
M: Stiff carbonation, very lightweight with a clean, dry finish.
O: No Go-To but better than a lot of light IPAs around now. I'd buy a 6er!
