On tap at Chuck’s CD, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is fairly neutral, with bittering hops and dry biscuity malt. Flavour is fairly bitter, with lightly piney, bittering hops and a dry biscuity malt base. Not much hop flavour expression, just bitterness. Reasonably balanced but just not that interesting.

On tap at Bottleworks, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is dominated by the rye and bourbon barrels, some molasses, and medium roast. Flavour has a ton of barrel, with huge, spicy rye barrel, followed by massive bourbon, medium roast, and spicy, earthy malt. Lots of spicy rye on the finish. Not the most complex malt profile but great barrel character. Excellent.

Pale gold, thin head, has some funny smoke phenols, hm, not the direction I was expecting.

16 oz can. Aroma is dank, cantaloupe, pineapple, catty, crackery. Pours hazy golden with a one finger bone-white head with decent retention. Taste has a moderate to high pithy bitterness with dank, tropical hop flavors. Harshly carbonated.

16 oz can. Aroma has notes of solvent, paint, biscuit, earth, orange. Pours hazy golden with a two finger off-white head with good retention. Taste is mildly bitter with lots of juicy hop flavors. Once again with this brewery, a beer with a bizarre aroma and decent flavors. Unlike the last beer I had from them, this one smelled pretty horrid. Fucking bizarre.

16 oz can. Aroma has notes of mango, honeysuckle, earth, must, pine, pickle, B.O.. Pours clear golden with a one finger bone-white head with decent retention. Taste has a moderate pithy bitterness, finishing dry. Kind of a bizarre hop profile in the nose, but it tastes pretty standard for West Coast IPA.

Aroma has notes of cantaloupe, pine, crackery malt. Taste has a moderate pithy bitterness backed by a light candy sweetness. Crisp and piney.
