Picked up a bottle on latest trip to Michigan. "130711" is stamped on the label, which I take to be the "best before" date.
Poured a murky orange beer with just under a finger of off-white head on top. This dissipated quickly, leaving nothing but a thin ring.
Smells of earthy and piney hops up front. More searching reveals caramel malt and a hint of grapefruit.
Taste surprised me, it really hits you compared to the nose. Extremely bitter with the pine, and almost tasting dirty with the earthiness. Grapefruit and a hint of spice pop up on the end. Malt is less sweet and less noticeable. It's more crackery.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied. It coats the tongue not with a residue but with bitterness.

A: Poured form the 12oz bottle into a pint glass. The beer is a very cloudy orange with little off-white head that dissipated quickly.
S: Nice and balanced - ready malt and an earth hope note that is slightly spicy, like clove and allspice. Seems like a good fall beer, surprisingly.
T: Resiny and earthy with lot of malt actually. Biscuit and a vague sweetness. Super balanced for an American IPA. Finishes more malty with just a touch of bitterness that reminded me more of an English style beer.
F: Slightly sticky with a little carbonation.
Overall: I loved the balance of this beer and would pick it up again for sure.

Good color for an IPA, appreciate the cloudy too.
This is one of the best smelling beer's I've ever had. Very hoppy, obviously, but a perfect balance of earthen floral and citrus. Love it.
Mouth feel is lighter than I prefer, but good for a hot summer day.
Taste is interesting. Obviously hop forward, mostly earthy. Mostly earthy, where I prefer significantly more citrus. Similar to Elysian Space Dust--I say this because that's a fairly widely distributed beer--if you like non-citrus IPA's best, this is for you.
