Draft. Pine, orange peel, and toffee malt aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Sweet orange malt and moderately bitter pine/orange peel flavor. Nice balance.

Drjohnrock (574) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JUL 25, 2015
Draft sampler from guest tap at Tap & Screw Brewery on July 25, 2015. Medium amber color, nice pungent aroma with fruit and malt more prominent than the hops, zesty taste that reverses the balance with the hops dominating with enough sweetness to keep things from getting overbearing. Nice stuff.

tmongoose (1802) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - FEB 13, 2015
draft in glass that poured a semi cloudy orangish red color with smallish white head. the aroma was hops and malt...mostly a citrus hop...the flavor was thin watery mildly malty and hoppy...not put together very well...was expecting more since I have heard good things about this brewery.

drfabulous (5097) - Lexington, Kentucky, USA - DEC 23, 2014
Draught at Country Boy. Reddish color with a big fruity double IPA taste. Some caramel. Not too big a fan of that type of double IPA, but this is ok.

rondphoto (3042) - Lakeside Park, Kentucky, USA - SEP 14, 2014
Clear dark caramel malt color, thin rim head, no lace. Not very interesting looking. Taste is assertive malt that grows stronger as it moves to a finish that, while bitter, also lets a little malt hang around. A decent brew, but somewhat thick, and heavy in the stomach.

Draft at the brew pub. Pours bright clear.copper with a fizzy white head. Tastes like tart grapefruit, dry pine hops, musky grains. Light body and low carbonation. Smells like sweet citrus fruit, nutty, caramel, hops.

JStax (3996) - Devola/Marietta, Ohio, USA - FEB 8, 2014
Draft pour. Pours a clear amber with a white head of foam. The aroma has notes of tropical fruits and pine. The taste is mostly bitter, but it has a bit of fruity sweetness kicking in as well. Light to medium bodied and medium carbonation.
