Mohagany pour with a straight white head that leaves really good retention. Aroma is resin and pine, with an underlying caramel sweetness. Oak is present in the taste, as is pine and earthy hop character. Medium to full body, very dry finish. Good stuff.

a little sweet and malty, with pine and citrus in the nose and flavor but hidden a little under waves of malt. adequately bitter and hearty. ok, but not a favorite.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 dlihcsnatas (473) - Texas, USA - JUL 21, 2014
Hazy brown brew with a thick tan head that stics to the side of the glass. Smells of pine and caramel. Taste is simular with the addition of a dry resin. Good bitterness that does allow the caramel malts to show through. While this is a really great brew it does come with a bigger sticker price than most. Would knock down my overall due to price but since a portion is going to help our wildlife I cant complain too much and will stick to my original overall score. I do love being outdoors and think everyone should do thier part to take care of our wildlife and stop trashing up the place.

Pours a nice clear red color with off-white head. Pine, some caramel malt, citrus, and resin on the nose, very hoppy; follows onto the palate. Very good DIPA, plays around with being a hoppy amber too.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 kevinator (1482) - The Colony, Texas, USA - FEB 4, 2014
Decent. Strong hoppy aroma with pine standing out front. The color was brown, not the dark red as advertised with a foamy head. Good palate with some weight and good carbonation. Flavors were a harsh bitterness up front that could have been better balanced. Some rye spiciness with milder malt flavors. Nothing over the top fantastic but a good beer.

Can:   Deep reddish caramel, thin to moderate foamy tannish head, nice lacing.   Husky aroma, malt forward, strong grainy notes.   Hop side, not so much.   Yeah, really husky on the nose.   Mealy and malty up front, also very husky.   This is a very much malt driven IIPA, but not a clean one.   Soft astringent grainy bitterness follows.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate.   Finishes way to husky and grainy for a Double IPA.   This was a let down... ugh, cant finish the rest...   Thanks Bill!
