Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

Wow, one of the best "noses" Ive ever smelled out of a bottle! Great off-white creamy head that seems to last. Super sticky lace- all the way down. Man it just coats the glass. Dark amber color. Burst of wonderful hoppy flavor first sip. Man this is it! Even still a nice malty balance. We had it our vertical pale/IPA tasting, last weekend,
Clear caramel almost mohogany color with a thin off-white head. Sweet citrus and floral hops aroma. Sweet caramel flavor with a floral hops edge.
Clear ruby amber colour, light frothy white head. Crazy hoppy aroma. All hops, all bitter, very palate-cleansing. Or stripping.
