Pours deep gold into an English pint. White head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Pine and resin aromas. Thick with sweet caramel and resin upfront turning slightly cloying in the lasting hot bitter caramel finish.

Cask gravity at GBBF 2015. Deep amber colour lasting beige head. Now that is quite nice pear drops pine resin. Lovely balanced. Best American ipa so far.

Can at home finally getting a relaxation time. Fine light orange pour. Nose is light fruits and hops. Tastes of pineapple, touch banana, popcorn, grainy, bread, light malts. Crisp and pleasant enough.

Refrigerated 16 oz. aluminum can from AirForceHops poured into a glass. Deep golden with medium white head. Aroma is fruity, medical body, medium carbonation, and some lacing. Taste is fruity, piney hops, with dry finish. Good maibock.

Pours a dark amber from a can, a few floaties. Smells like sweat and sex. Flavor is a caramel, piney bittersweetness. Thin mouthfeel. Meh.

Pours a hazy yellow from a can. Strong lemon aroma, thought I was in for a shandy, but the citrus flavor is rather toned down from the aroma. Okay beer.
