Had this on tap at the Dark Horse Tavern (the brew pub).
A: Hazy orange color with a creamy 1 finger head that fades quickly.
N: Light spicy hops with some lemongrass. Hints of malts in the background. Pretty light on the nose.
T: Taste is pretty light too with some musty hops, fruit juice, and a little bitter chewy hop presence. A slight malt flavor. Not too bitter on the taste, closer to a spicy pale ale.
M: Medium to light body with decent carbonation.
F: Long bitter spicy chewy hop presence, semi dry. A little grassy and floral tasting on the finishing hops.

I had at a beer tasting at d.b.a. in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The description read as follows: "Robust, deep copper ale with rich toasted and woody malt flavors and a distinct spicy hop bitterness [72 IBUs] and citrusy aroma. Brewmaster Mike Labbe infuses it with whole Centennial hops using this small, obscure brewery's hopback system, which enhances the aroma. Hopped with nugget, east kent goldings, cascade and centennial varieties."
My own impression was that it had a slight sourness to it with a fruity aftertaste.
