This pours cloudy amber with a tall, sticky off-white head. Pine and citrus are melded with a juicy malt base in the aroma. The flavor is bitter with plenty of hops, yet the sweetness is there in the back all along. A welcome new comer to my area.

Bottle pours black with a medium head. Aroma is chocolate and espresso with lots of Berry vinous notes. Flavor is big roast and smoke with dry red vinous notes coming forward and finishing with lots of grassy hops. Good stuff.

Bottle as a rare find in TN for a new state! Pours a deep amber/almost copper. A few bubbles float around on the surface, little carbonation. Aromas are English IPA-like... lots of caramel malt, herbal hops, a little resin and spice. Flavor is similar... I like the West Coast-style IPA description, but this is more of a hybrid between West Coast and England. Flavor is OK... but again, it’s more herbal and spicy hops instead of citrus and resin. It’s good, but not quite as advertised.

Courtesy of jdubFL. Pours clear copper with thin white head. The aroma is spoiled moldy earthiness, spicy hops and sour citrus. I like the smell. The taste is pretty crisp with modest levels of spicy hops and mild malt sweetness and seemingly little else.

Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours with a tan head and a deep brown body. Aroma of windex, cedar, wood, belgian yeast, light bugs, pine and brown sugar. Taste is raw grain, wood, tannic and just kind of odd and off tasting. Light bubbles and a dry finish for a quad. Alcohol is decently well hidden. Second bottle rate (maybe it didn’t make the transition from kegs to bottles well on this batch).
