12th review, 1st for the brewer, which I admire.
a) Massive lace shards over persistent white ring over an apricot hazed body.
s) Work, sweat, iron, steel, coal, minerals - while they inspired this beer they seem to be in it.
t) Likewise, highly mineral (this is Appalachia), workman-like profile of malt, hops, more toward pine, grass, fall leaves, bitter than fruit.
f) Also a nice flinty feel.
o) I love when I try an IPA that is off the path, and this is one. Try it against others. If you like them masculine, this is a good one. Grows on you.
