My first beer from this company (thanks Matti and Ginny) and it's a great start. I've been dying for a good IPA and this hit the spot.

Classic orangey-amber colour, slight head and lacing. Fairly mild smelling considering what comes next!

A lovely bittersweet maltiness gives way to a ton of stinging hop bitterness and that wonderful dry IPA aftertaste. I could drink this all day. Unfortunately I only have one bottle of it. This is a brewer to watch.

    Even the impossible can be found on eBay, if you are patient in your searching. Try searching for Russian River (you'll need to narrow down by beer name, ex. Pliny, Damnation, Temptation), Black Albert, or any of the BIG beers. Don't overlook eBay's Belgium Beer results either...
