16 ounce can courtesy of phaleslu. Thanks Peter! Pours a clear amber color with a large offwhite head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of citrus hops with a faint resiny bite and caramel/toffeeish malts. The taste is big citrus hops with a nice toffeeish malt presence. Bitter finish. Well balanced. Very nice IPA.

Can at 33 Wine Shop & Tasting Bar in St. Louis. The beer is a clear dark copper color with a thin and foamy light beige head that burns away steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. The aroma is equally hoppy and malty, along with a hint of fruit. Medium body with a piney hops character and sweet toasted malt and fruit flavors. The finish is moderately hoppy with a lingering bitterness. An interesting sort of hybrid but just a little above average overall.

Pour is a murky brown with a small tan head. Aroma is a sweet sticky malt followed by a hop presence. Flavor is earthy malt with a nice hop to round things out. Leaves a little dark fruit on the tounge as this goes down. Decent example of the style.

Pour is a straw yellow with a large white head. Aroma is hay and bread. Flavor is very weak. Some biscuit malt and that is even a guess. There is not much going on with this one.

Pour is a black with a small tan head. Aroma is nice with lots of roasted malt and coffee. Flavor is about the same just a bit lighter. Some coffee is there with a roasted malt but again kind of thin at the end. Still there are just enough good qualities in this for a sample.

Pour is a bright orange with a large whtie head. Aroma is a nice pine resin. Flavor is also a decent hop with a fair amount of malts showing up. It’s no modus hoperandi but this is a pretty decent canned IPA.

#100 brewed in Kansas rating. 16 oz pint can purchased at Lukas Overland Park, Kansas. Pour is slightly hazed golden ruby with a nicely formed two inch tan head. Very nice looking in my pint mug. Aroma is bright clean fresh pine hops, behind that is a nice toasted malt smell. Fresh and clean nose. Taste is the nose, starts with the big hoppy pine, followed close behind by the toasted ever so slightly sweet maltiness. Flavors are nicely balanced, and the finish is crisp and dry. Palate is medium to light, prickly carbonation and the aforementioned bitter dry finish. The aftertaste is a nice flinty mineral aspect that really works for me. I really enjoyed this one.
