Historical Community Tasting Notes

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

Sampled on tap @ Yardhouse but can easily access a bottle. This one is aggressive, bitter, and unbalanced. I would consider myself a "hophead" but didnt really enjoy this beer. All pine, little citrus, and little underlying sweetness to improve drinkability. Had one...then needed a drink.
A rich orange copper colour, inviting citrus and piney aroma...taste as good as it smells, well hopped but not over the top..some malt sweetness and body to create a well balanced IPA...thanks to my buddy Eric for this post golf range treat.
Ummm a nice IPA. The color is unclear cobber with a good ivory head. Nice strong bitterness just the way i like it.
