Duft av malt, ellers lite lukt. Fin gyllen lys brun farge. Tynt dekkende skum. Liten svak smak av honning, ellers mer vassen smak.

Hazy orange body under a tall chunky off-white head. Juicy malts, pine resin, and citrus blend well in the aroma. The flavor is not too sweet, not too bitter with plenty of hop flavor delivered on a somewhat light palate.

Bottle at The Shed: Pale copper/golden color with a finger of sandy head. Sticky lacing. Nose is citrus and caramel, as is the taste. Very light florals. Simple in complexity, but refreshing.

Bottle: Pours brown with a finger of tan head. Nose is sweet and roasty, with a significant amount of citrus hops. Taste follows. The citrus hops work nicely with the level of roast even a light bit of smoke. Borderline porter v. black ipa in my book. Refreshing and very good.

Bomber. An Alabama beer, finally. Copper body with a decent, but ephemeral head. Aromas are caramel and grapefruit with resin. Flavor is very nice. It’s a little more caramel-heavy than I would like in a perfect IPA, but the hops presence is very nicely balance with a nice hops punch.

Poured up on tap at GABF 2012 with a crystal clear gold body supporting an off white head. The aroma has some resiny pine, some citrus and some spicy hoppiness. The taste is nice and rich and bold. I get a pleasing blend of resiny pine hops and grapefruit citrus hops followed by spiciness and just a touch of dank earthiness all heading into the finish. Wow this is a really well rounded and great tasting IPA. It is a little timid in the aroma but the flavor more than makes up for it.

Poured up on tap at GABF 2012 with a nice looking mahogany body supporting a tan head of foam. The mild aroma offers up a little bit of dark roastiness as well as some earthy malt notes. The taste is smooth and mild and blended with dark roasted malts and slightly burnt malts but balanced out by some malt sweetness and malt earthiness and just a touch of mineral. Pretty cool balance for a standard Porter style.
