Location: 750 ml bottle from my father, 12/22/13, 2013 Release
Aroma: The nose earthy and floral hops, some fruity notes, sweet caramel/toffee malts
Appearance: It pours a nice, clean orange color with a small head and minimal lace
Flavor: The taste is mid-sweet and mid-bitter, clean hop flavors, finishes a little more bitter
Palate: The body is medium, with an average-plus carbonation, some stickiness, and a dry finish
Overall Impression: I thought this was a solid IPA and a really cool concept beer, but it isn't quite up to being a great beer. Still, this is very worth trying. I'd love to try it super fresh to see if it is even better.

Bottle. Thanks Walt! Pours lightly hazy golden amber, small white head, good lacing. Aroma is citrus, dank, pine, pretty good. Flavor is the same, much less pronounced, light plus sweet, medium bitter. Too much bittering hops, not enough flavor. Medium body.
