Trev (387), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA May 9, 2008 pours a nice copper gold with a thick solid head.
Floral hop aroma (as advertised...though I won’t go so far as to say incredible)
Grapefruit-citrus flavour and floral tones in the flavour backed by a subtle malt presence.
Excellent IPA. Rogueone (95), I F&ckin’ hate those guys from, Ohio, USA May 9, 2008 Draft @ Barley’s: This is an IPA staple. Pours a beautiful and jubilant orange. Smells of fresh-squeezed citrus, and dried flowers. Perfect balance of hop character. Grapefruit rind, welcome acidity of fresh-squeezed orange juice, and a small budding floral bouquet. Purity in a glass. abcfan (85), USA May 8, 2008 Thanks emacgee. Pretty good brew. Great floral hop aroma. Pours a nice yellow amber color with fluffy off-white head. Taste isn’t nearly as hoppy as aroma, but it has a nice malt balance to it. Finish is very bitter and crisp. markwise (104), Orlando, Florida, USA May 8, 2008 The aroma of this beer is awesome. It pours an amber/copper color with ahealthy head. The initial taste, though is a bit weak. Not nearly as malty and hoppy as some other IPA’s I have enjoyed. It has a great aroma and a great finish, but the taste in between them is not nearly as impresive. BeerZack (105), Austin, Texas, USA May 7, 2008 Cloudy light caramel orange color with nice one finger sticky foam.
Spicy floral hops dominate, bit of pine resin and touch of alcohol.
Light, but not too light, sweet malt (biscuity, hint of caramel) underscored by floral bittering throughout. Bit of woodsy spice builds at the finish to give it a little bite.
Pretty soft feeling, despite a bit of tingling from the moderate carbonation. Medium bodied. PrettyDamnDrinkable.
