Had a pint ($8.00) with lunch today at the brewery....
Served in a standard shaker pint glass, I found it quite dark for the style. It was a dense, dark copper, with a bit of garnet. Couldn't see what the carbo was up to, but the head was creamy and off-white. Lacing was decent, lining the glass nicely. Aroma had caramel malt topped by a large dose of rindy, piney citrus. It was fairly smooth, with just a little prickle, and a medium to medium-plus body.
Flavor had some caramel sweetness and a hint of toffee at the outset. That didn't last long, as a plethora of pithy, piney, resiny hops hit the palate. Had lots of rindy, west-coast action going on, and that bitterness lingered long and hard. I rather enjoyed this, all in all. Prosit!

On tap at the brewery,
Murky amber brown color with a smallish off white head that shows moderate retention. Earthy piney bitter resin hop aromas with a faint bit of caramel maltiness. Bitter resinous flavor is a bit harsh at times, light grassy and caramel flavors suppurating. Not horrible, but lots of bittering hops in this one.
