22 ounce bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a dark brown color with a thin head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of dark, chewy malts, some slight roastiness and chocolate. A faint bit of smoke as well. The taste is roasted malts, chocolate, some nutty notes, minty hops. Smooth, medium bodied. Very nice porter.

Location: 22 oz bottle from Chevy Chase, 2/26/10

Aroma: Mostly citrus hops (orange, grapefruit), some caramel notes
Appearance: Slightly unclear orange color, large, frothy white head, leaves a good amount of lace
Flavor: Taste is moderately sweet, citrus hops, caramel malts, with a quite dry finish
Palate: Light-medium body, a little bit on the creamy side, mildly chewy, average (plus) carbonation
Overall Impression: This is a pretty solid IPA. Rather on the dry side, but I'm good with that. It has a decent feel to it, and it works pretty well. Solid stuff. Slight metallic feel, but doesn't take much away from it. Anyway, if you enjoy a citrus hop IPA with a strongly dry flavor, then this one is a pretty good idea.

Pours deep copper with gold edges and thin off white head. The aroma is spices, apple, mild pumpkin spice and faint pumpkin flavored Kool – Aid. The taste is pumpkin spiciness followed by mild spiced apple and a smooth faint note of sweet maltiness as well as a touch of roasted malts.

Got this on tap at Sunset Grille. Beer menu lied to me with promise that it was going to have 6.8 percent alcohol. Bastards. Anyway, it looks perfectly nice, with a proper copper/amber body and a nice off-white head, especially when poured into one of those tulip glasses that they like serving beers in. You get a bunch of bready malts in the nose along with some mild hopping. Taste is pretty well-balanced, making for a proper session ale. Moderate enough grassy hops with bready malts in taste obviously as well. Also got some citrus in there as well, but that is not one of the main flavors it seems.

Bottled. Slightly pale hazy yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is barnyard, citrus, some spices and mild notes of spruce. Flavour is rather much the same. Quite funky and nice.

bottle, thanks to SHIG, pours hazy carmel with a tall frothy off white head. Aroma is floral with nice hop notes and a pale malt and hay background. Flavor is toasted malt and a nice sour note that are balanced with a decent hop bitterness, reminds me of an ESB. Not bad.
