A malty and complex IPA which supports the generous amounts of Chinook, Centennial, and Colombus hops. American Ale Yeast ferments this beer cleanly allowing the dank hop qualities to shine through.

Nice copper color with a light tan head, this old school IPA has nice citrus and pine notes on the nose and a substantial caramalt note as well.
The hops are up front on the taste and the caramalt eases this into a nice balanced finish. Very good old school IPA that edges toward DIPA territory.

Unknown vintage; drank 3/18/16.
Semi-opaque orange appearance.
A rough pour yielded a big off-white head; a curtain of frothy tree-rung lace.
Blood orange, banana & faint caramel notes in the nose.
Medium mouthfeel.
Blood orange flavor up front; dry pine & faint caramel notes on the finish.
Simple & a bit dry; somewhat enjoyable.

16oz can. Poured a clear, golden amber color with a small, tan head of khaki-colored foam. It smelled roasted malt, toast and pine. Very malt-forward IPA with a bitter piney hop bite.

Hazy copper pour. Smells slighly dank with lots of pine and citrus. Resinous, piney hops with a thick carmel malt bill. Nice medium creamy mouthfeel with mild hop bitterness.
