Taste comprises more breads, hint of grapefruit, orange, melon, toasted grains. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced moderate hop bitterness. A pretty pedestrian mom and pop brewpub kind of IPA.

Keg at MBCC 2018 Blue (session Zwei), 11/05/18. Black with a well presented tan head. Nose is chocolate biscuit, toffee, dried fruits, mellow roast. Taste comprises roast malt, light black peppery spice, charr, cocoa powder, molasses. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Low end for the style ... sippable but lacks depth for the ABV and comes over a little thin.

MBCC 2018. Red. Pedal to the Metal session. Keg. Clear amber beer, small cream colour head. Smooth and semi dry palate, reasonable carbonation. Dry malts, a little cream and a little grain. Pine and bitterish citric peel. Ripe peel on the dry finish. It's okay but there many many better DIPAs at this fest.
