I like the Tommyknocker Pick Axe...it's a decent EPA. The beer poured a hazy golden color with white head that is leaving a nice lacing. The scent is not robust...there is a fresh bitter hop nose. The taste is a nice balanced beer...it is not to bitter and not too sweet. The mouthfeel is medium in body with good carbonation. Overall the beer is good and I would have this beer again....nice job!

A: Pours a tall off-white head, 3 fingers. Slightly cloudy dark amber
S: Smell of hops and citrus
T: Unique IPA flavor I have not had before, quite nice. Smooth, yet very flavorful. Very pleasant IPA.
M: Medium-high carbonation, very smooth and creamy feel
O: One of the best IPA's I've had. Has a unique flavor that really works. If you don't like supper hoppy overpowering IPA's this one's for you.

Poured a beautiful light copper with great clarity and a two finger, hefty cream top. It faded fast though and left a thin filmy swirl of white. Thin wall of sea foam lacing.
The aroma is mild with loads of grassy elements. A nut and caramel mix balance out with a prominente malt presence. Good balance, but a little sweet smelling for an IPA.
Nicely balanced for an IPA. A definitive caramel backbone with hints of vanilla and maple...even tones of honey but a balance appears of floral boquets. Honeysuckle, clover, fresh cut grass, spring...but nice caramel, honey undertones. Balcne is great!
Medium bodied, crisp, refreshing...cutting, edgey...
Overall, great, a little too easy to drink and slightly dangerous.
