Bottle: Pours a nice copper color with a small beige head. Aroma of malts and fruitiness, moderate on the hops. Flavor is more malty sweet and floral hops. A good offering in the I2PA arena.

Bottle poures a hazy medium amber. Snall of white head. Malty sweet BW like aroma. Hops are soft and faded. Thick bodied and a bit syrupy. Boce malts and brown sugar flavors with nearly enough IBUs. Slight cardboardy woody trailer.

12 oz. bottle from Suttree. Pour is clear reddish copper with visible carbonation and a one inch tan head. Aroma of hay and malt. Taste is pretty metallic before revealing a semi-sweet biscuit maltiness and a grassy hop finish. This one didn’t taste put together to well, pretty sharp transitions between the flavors. Thanks Phil!

Courtesy of mgumby10. It pours a hazy copper with gold edges and thin off white head. The aroma has an initial hit of sweet grapefruit hard candy (if there is such a thing), some pine hops mixed with malty sweetness. The combination creates a fruity – pale – almost hay like aroma. The thick mouth feel ushers in malt sweetness and grapefruit hop bitterness that seems to give way to a citrus hard candy flavor. A malty backbone shows up midway with lightly roasted malts and malt sweetness to interrupt the hop momentarily. The grapefruit hop bitterness grows into the finish and after taste. It doesn’t come together all that well for me. The flavors seem disjointed somewhat.

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours a hazy orange with frothy white head. The mild aroma is sweet sugary malts and mild hops like grapefruit and over ripe orange. Just like the aroma it starts sweet and malty with a hint of astringency. The hops are mild with grapefruit, ripe orange and orange rind. The bitterness builds some into the finish but is overall lackluster in its assertiveness.

Hazy orange-ish straw color with a thin white head. The aroma is nothing but a vague malt sweetness and if I concentrate I think I get a hint of hops. The taste starts thin and with above average carbonation. It has a very mild flavor that’s much like the aroma with vague maltiness and mild grapefruit hops.

Thanks to goldtwins for sharing - hazy reddish copper beer - spicy aroma, with notes of butterscotch and caramel - odd hop spiciness that doesn’t integrate well - a bit sweet, with apparent diacetyl - the alcohol comes out a lot as it warms - not that good.

Bottle: Poured a light orangey color ale with a small foamy head with some good retention and some medium lacing. Aroma of bitter malt is dominating with no discernable notes of caramel malt. Taste is also dominated by some deep bitter hops notes with some subtle malt presence. I would have appreciated some more notes of citrus or resin. Body is about average with some medium carbonation.

Aroma is lemongrass, orange, and a little feety. Hazy amber with a thin off white head. Unremarkablle taste of weak caramel and orange. Good lemon grass finish. Highly drinkable with good quality hops, but there is not a lot of character.

Aroma is orange and grapefruit, with a little yeast. Cloudy amber with a thin to medium light orange head. Dry and yeasty, lemon peel. Piny finish. Kind of a chewy mouthfeel. I like this brewer, but this isn’t one of their best. Still above average.
