The Dan Journal #233. Tasted 8/26/08. 12oz bottle. Hazy with a golden honey hue. Lacing white head. Hoppy aromas with hints of citrus and grapefruit. Sweet note. Medium bodied and bitter. Big palate. Pine and grapefruit hop characters. Mild effervescence. Bitter yet rounded palate. Solid with a hoppy finish. Gimme more!

ilikebeer2 made a beer trip and came back with lots of good stuff and shared it with a bunch of C-U Beer Club buddies. Thanks, Scott. Pours out a vivid amber with a medium frothy white head. The aroma was of serious grapefruit hoppiness, toasted malt, and wheat. Light to medium body that was gently carbonated. The flavor was strong hops bitterness. APA or IPA? Anyway, the beer was a refreshing drink.

Hazed golden with some white head. Big hoppy, Juicey Fruit style nose. Mild hop flavor of orange and tangerine. Medium to light body with ample carbonation. Very easy to drink in mass quantity. Nice.

12 oz bottle from csbosox. Pour is orange amber clear with a fluffy white head. Aroma of hops - orange/lemon citrus. A bit of malty sweetness (biscuit) in there as well. Taste is pretty much as advertised by the nose, orange, lime and lemon hoppiness, some nice bitterness. Also, a great backbone of slightly sweet biscuit malt. Palate was a touch on the watery side, but didn’t keep this from being very enjoyable. Thanks Chris.

Clear amber body. Wonderful aroma - straight up ballin’ Cascades. Teh flavor dissapointingly features none of the flavor/aromatic hops just the bitter parts of the hop. Not much malt backing. Bonus points for the aroma.

Creamy hop aroma; very pleasant and promising. Smells like an EPA. Amber body and a small, off-white, cloudy head. Not much lace or head. Nice balance. Has the right amount of bitterness for an APA. Very pleasant; has session qualities. Solid; a pleasant surprise. Lighter in body but better than 70% of beers out there.

12oz bottle courtesy of xmarcnolanx. Pours a hazy honey amber with a half finger of white head and decent lacing. Nose is light citrus hops for the most part with some caramel. Taste is caramel malt upfront, mild grapefruit and some pine in the finish that lingers for a bit. Medium mouth feel. Not bad – thanks Marc.

12oz bottle. Very cloudy orange with medium slowly diminishing head that laces well. Citrus & floral aroma. Strange floral aftertaste, did I just eat the bouquet of flowers? Long bitter finish with grapefruit or something like it. You wouldn’t think it by the name, but this beer is very hoppy… decent but not stellar.
