Bottle. Grassy and caramelly hop aroma. Cloudy amber colour. Small frothy white head. The flavour is distinctly teaish. Has a little grapefruit and caramel. A bit sweet, but balanced by a distinct bitterness and alcohol.

Bottle at ChrisOs ’Blue Ridge Mountains Of Virginia’ tasting. Very very dark brown, lasting beige head. Quite hoppy for a porter. OK, fairly hoppy, some decent malts, some hops. It’s a black IPA. Decent, in fact more than decent.

American Beer Disto (Bomber $5): Pours a muddy light brown color with a thick beige head. Definitely on the darker side of IPAs. Aroma is of caramel malts, earthy hops, and a whiff of ethanol. This IPA veers very strongly towards the malty side of things. Toffee flavors. Thick and earthy. Hop bitterness is definitely there and leaves a proper aftertaste. Would be sessionable.

Appearance: Hazy caramel colored beer with a smallish head
Flavor: The taste is grassy, caramel, some hops - fairly balanced
Palate: Dry, medium bodied, drinkable
Overall Impression: A solid, hardly memorable as an original or a stand-out, but it is certainly a drinkable IPA.
