On tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy, dark, orange color, with a big, foamy, white head. The nose is tangerine, butterscotch, resin, light grass, and rose. Fairly sweet, with a bracing, dank bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a sharp, biting feel. This is an enjoyable, aggressively hopped IPA.

Pint at the brewery. Pours black, with a big, foamy, tan head. The nose is chicory, light maple smoke, caramelized sugar, and pine sap. Almost dry and malty, with a mild, biting bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a syrupy, astringent palate. This is an enjoyable, biting, and well made porter.

12 oz. can. Pours a hazy, dark, orange color, with a big, foamy, beige head. The nose is vanilla, saltine crackers, beautiful blood orange juice, and rose water. Tangy and acidic, and quite bitter. The palate is fairly light, with a chewy, hard finish. This is an interesting beer, but fun and fruity.

Pint at the brewery. Pours a clear, amber color, with a small, off-white head. The aroma is orange juice, cardamom, caramel, spruce, and dust. Dry and malty, with a mild bitterness. Light to medium body, with a slick, malty palate. The Mellow and interesting.

12 oz. can purchased at Total Wine & Liquor in Colorado Springs, CO. Pours a cloudy dark gold color with a large white head and excellent retention. Fair lacing. Weak wheat aroma. Good wheat base beer with a softer and lightly sweeter honey finish. Good blend. Almost drinks like a lager. Heavy body. The 7.5% ABV is well hidden. More, please. I'm a fan.

12 oz. can. Pours an unclear, anemic, pale yellow color, with a medium sized, white head. The nose is dry grass, chardonnay, quinine, lime peel, and green banana. A bit sweet, with a sharp, drying bitterness. Light ot medium body, with a sharp, astringent mouthfeel. This is quite dry and interesting. Quality, if a bit aggressive.

Got in a trade with beergoot. 12 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy deep golden amber color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky off white head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Thick soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big lemon, orange, peach, pear, melon, red apple, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, herbal, floral, wood, grass, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of honey, fruity/spicy yeast, pale/wheat malts, and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with big strength. Taste of big lemon, orange, peach, pear, melon, red apple, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, herbal, floral, wood, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate herbal, floral, woody, grassy bitterness; pepper/clove yeast spiciness; and light wheat tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, orange, peach, pear, melon, red apple, peppercorn, clove, light banana/bubblegum, honey, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, herbal, floral, wood, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of honey, fruity/spicy yeast, pale/wheat malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 7.5%. Overall this is an excellent honey imperial APWA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of honey, fruity/spicy yeast, pale/wheat malts, and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and fairly crisp/refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/spicy/drying finish; not aggressive. Awesome balance of citrus/floral honey, American wheat yeast, and clean pale/wheat malts; with nice earthy hop presence/balance for the style. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp drying. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive style example for an imperial version.
