Faint tea and orange nose. Cloudy copper, full of fine floaties, thin head. Bread crust and marigold flavor, a robust sort of IPA. Slightly resinous, but perfectly acceptable. Decent, but ordinary.

The Big Hunt, DC pint ($6): Pours your standard wit color with a cloudy yellow and a white head. Aroma is to your utmost surprise cloves and banana. Taste is pretty much down that same road. This is a very drinkable beer, but does not really try that hard to make itself very different from other beer. In any case, it is well-balanced, but not highly nuanced.

12oz bottle pours a transparent orange with a thin, white head. Nose is fruity and sweet, light malt, caramel, oranges, some mango, honey, flowers. Flavor is sweet, oranges, raisins, mango, nectarine, peach, cracker, a little metallic, malty. Medium bodied, sweet, lightly bitter finish. I thought this was exceptionally drinkable. A sweeter, fruiter IPA, but very enjoyable.

Had on tap at brewery and from growler. Poured a hazy golden color with a fluffy white head. Aroma was spices, notes of biscuit and malts with a touch of hops. Flavor was about the same, with a pretty good yeast and bready body with nice spice notes of coriander and orange. I found this one highly drinkable during the Super Bowl.

Poured a golden straw/yellow color with a medium sized foamy white head. Aroma was biscuit with notes of mild malts and hops. Flavor was moderately hoppy, with a pretty decent malt backing to it.
