Sampled at Texas Beerfest. Pours a cloudy orange with a medium creamy beige head. The aroma is a strong floral hop and grapefruit. Medium mouthfeel with a sweet cascade hop with a nice light bitter finish. Hides the alcohol well making it easy to drink, a very good IIPA from Squatters.

750mL bottle courtesy of douglas88. Pours murky dark brown with super tall sort of mocha head. The aroma has pretty bold tart notes at first. After it sets around for a while softer notes of oak, spicy oak and red wine grapes are noticed. The taste is similar with a red wine barrel like tartness giving way to oak notes, spicy notes, some grapes and some maltiness with ever so thin ribbons of caramel candy.

Bottle courtesy of douglas88. Bomber pours dirty brown with copper hues and thin tan head. The aroma is big and perfumy with loads of lavender and flowery notes as well as some honey, herbs and a touch of grainy malts. The taste is similar with big lavender like flowery notes, some honey sweetness and a bit of grainy malts too. If you’re in the mood for a floral-ish beer then this one will do the trick.

22 oz bottle got in trade with Sledutah. Shared with LiteWait. Clear yellow thin white head, displaying lots of carbonation, so much so that some suck to the side of the glass. Nose is of grape and malt. Taste is light malt, traces of honey but does have a crisp clean finish. Its an easy summer beer.

750 ml. bottle I got in a trade with Sledutah. Thanks Craig! Hazy red color. Great lacing over the snifter. Nose is classic Belgian Flemish Sour with oak sourness and tart cherries. Taste is tart cherry, sour oak, some brettanomyces and vinegar. Lighter in body. Very sour and the brew is really mouth puckering. A very well done sour ale. Lots of pucker in the finish. A very slow sipper but not in a bad way. I didn’t get tried of it at all. Has a good drinkability. If you find your way to Salt Lake City, pickup a bottle if you like sours!

22 oz bottle I got in a trade with Sledutah. Used a lager glass. Pours a bright copper, with a red hue. Big, full white head. Very good lacing. Nose has distinct ginger-like citrus, spice and light wheat base. I got to say the flavor is a unique cross between a Belgian Wit beer and a Autumn seasonal brew. Light body, crisp and refreshing. I give this brew a few points based on originality. Plus I didn’t even know what a Manuka tea was until I drank this beer. A nice spring or summer beer.
