The new beer is called DeadLiftIt is an Imperial India Pale AleBeautiful deep golden amber colorIt pours out to a nice thick creamy head, that lasts well.Initial nose is wonderful, malt sweetness a nd citrus hops burst into the nose.The flavor, is a wonderful compliment to the aroma and does not dissapoint, the alcohol content of 8.6% is well balanced by the strong american hop presence, and the solid malt backbone.There is an obvious presence of crystal malt, but it is well balanced by a very strong dose of the Alchemy blend of hops they use for bittering,the IBU's feel balanced,and the bite lingers , just enough in the aftertaste. The finish is slightly sweet, without being syrupy or cloying, again well balanced.All in all i would give this beer a very big thumbs up recommendation. It is sold in 4 packs, and the one I purchased was $8.99

Shouldn't this be in the reviews forum?

at least I didn't post it in the PH

I'd be willing to give it a try. I was fairly impressed with their Drifter Pale Ale.

Shouldn't this be in the reviews forum?

In all fairness, the Beer Forum could use the extra traffic

I picked up a 4-pack at the grocery store today. 4 pack? Really? Whats this world coming to? Ill probably give it a try after dinner tonite. :PETA: Mic, I totally missed your reference to the 4 pack and price when i posted, then reread. Its my first 4 pack purchase. I feel like a schoolgirl again. I think i paid $7.08 for it.

I forgot I had this stuff in the beer fridge. It was tucked back behind a few kegs. Poured real nice, smallish head. Beautiful color....smells malty. Very nice hoppy bitterness with a good balance of malty goodness. Im not normally a hophead by any means, but this is very enjoyable. And at 8.6% I already feel a nice warming buzz forming after one glass. This definitely calls for another....
