Spritzig hopfiger, zunehmend blumiger Antrunk. Süffige Noten, etwas Frucht, genau die richtige malzig trockene Mischung. Spritzig, rund, typisch IPA eben. 11/9/9/11//11

Location: Draft at Houston Hall, 12/27/14, Sadly, I wasted my 4100th on this travesty of a beer
Aroma: It has a fairly light aroma of pale malts and mild hops.
Appearance: This one is murky looking and yellowish in color, with a small head, lots of lace.
Flavor: It has an unpleasant, soapy flavor, dish detergent, just not good.
Palate: It has a fairly light body, and an okay mouthfeel.
Overall Impression: This is an okay beer except that flavor, which is kind of crucial. Seriously, flavor matters, and this beer lacks anything good in that department.

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 6
Location: Draft at Houston Hall, 12/27/14
Aroma: Pumpkin spice and nutmeg on the nose, with some light orange zest notes
Appearance: Caramel colored pour with a beige head and some light lace
Flavor: The taste is along the same lines, a semi artificial pumpkin spice flavor is what you get
Palate: It has a pretty good mouthfeel and a medium body, a little sticky on the close
Overall Impression: It is an okay example of the style, but not top notch. One of those beers where the more if it I drank the less I liked it.

Aroma: Nose of citrus hops mostly, light malty notes.
Appearance: Orange color with a good sized white head.
Flavor: The flavor is citrus as well with a decently bitter finish.
Palate: Easy drinking, with a clean feel on the mouth, and a soft carbonation.
Overall Impression: This is a solid IPA overall. Citrus hops are the dominant component, and it drinks easily and nicely, making it a pretty crushable offering that works well in the beer hall environment.

At HH: Pours golden with white head. Herbal hops and corn. Taste is herbal and there is a bunch of corn in there. I don’t think that there is any corn in this, but there is a definitive taste of it in there. This was not good. I think people have really over-rated it here.

At the hall: Pours copper with a white head. Aroma is crap. Taste is roughly the same. This is one of the most foul tasting beers that I have ever had. The hop profile or malt profile or both was just really off. I had to force myself to finish this. I would rather drink Bud (Light).
