Oddly enough the ones I've had in the last couple of attempts were overly sweet with very little hop presence which is what I don't like about them (I also prefer a dry IIPA)
Nova Prime Taproom
Tap 1: Festa Brew Scotch Ale
Tap 2:
"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

I had a 6-pack that was purchased fairly recently... definitely not undercarbed, and clarity was great, too. Flavor and aroma were very good, as well.
Just picked up another 6 pack, seems better than the last but it's actually from the same batch (March 13th)..still seems to be a bit under carbonated though.
