Hand Botled pours a clear light yellow/orange with a slight head that needed to be coaxed up a bit. Some of the carbonation clearly was lost in the bottling process. Aroma is pale malts with some pine needles. Flavor is pale and fairly light witha bit of a candyish, earthy and a trace of peppermint maybe. Lingering dry bitter trailer. Barely fizzy enough to carry the palate. Interesting and a bit different. I must not be used to Amarillo as a featured hop. I’d love to try this fresh and on tap. Thanks to BuckeyeBoy via Silfly for this one.

Bottle from bgburdman9; Citrusy (orange smelling), flowery aroma, very hoppy; slightly hazed orenge with a medium glass-lacing yellowish head; flavor isorangish combined with medium hop bitterness along with some minor caramel malt notes. Pretty darn good, but still not quite as good as my favorite Moylans I compare IPAs to!

Thanks to OhioDad for this one. A firm, creamy, tan head easily forms over this deep brown, ruby tinged body. Forms a beautiful lace as well. Dark caramel aroma with dark fruits suggestive of prunes. The flavor is sweet overall with a firm bitterness underneath. Smmoth coating and slick mouthfeel. As this warms, the bitterness fades and some additional complexities devlop and the palate continues to smooth out. Nice one.

Thanks to OhioDad for this one! Pours a hazy dark amber with a generous pff-white head. Light citrus aroma. The flavor is well balanced, with both sweet malts and bittering hops represented equally. A gentle, yet firm drying bitterness describes the finish. I could drink a session with this one.
