Yummm! Super good and very drinkable Imperial IPA. Aroma is very juicy and balance between fragrant Hops and caramel malt. Flavor is like knows, sweet up front with a bitter finish. Great body.
Glad I tried this and the IPA but am also glad I only have 1 bottle of each instead of the case if 12 I would have had to buy in PA.

On tap at CBC 2017, pours a muddy amber with some fluffy, white head. Nose is OK, blood orange, grapefruit, soap, pine, stale malts, hints of booze. Flavor is harsh though, astringent and grating with soap, dried citrus peel, stale malts. Finishes full bodied, grating. Not my thing. Didn’t get any of the promised berry.

Bottle from Boise Co-op. Dark amber, small bubbly head. Dank, hoppy aroma,. Taste brings in more of the malt base, caramel and toffee. Hoppy at first, then subsides to a nice malty brew with a bitter finish. Patrick Henry would be proud!
