Pours light golden with a finger of creamy head that has good staying power. nice citrusy aroma beckons. Taste is a bit sweet at first, with the hops hitting you soon after for a lightly bitter, but overall refreshing finish. A good, really drinkable IPA.

Shag (2283) - Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA - FEB 24, 2012
A golden color with a white head. The aroma contains some perfume, oranges, and lemons. The flavor is somewhat bitter but well balanced with some oranges, lemons, an a hint of pine. The finish is rather sour. Overall not great but ok..

It’s an IPA. Pours gold with slight fruit notes. Hoppiness doesn’t sit too heavy on palate. Nothing overly special here. The can is cool though ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Can. Pours clear copper with a huge white head, significant lacing, and carbonation in the glass. Smells of caramel malt, pine, and citrus fruit. Taste is malty.. strong backbone which hides the bitterness. Palate is medium+. Overall, a good brew but I prefer my IPA to be a bit more bitter.

At Bierkraft. Sizable malt background on this ipa... Spruce upfront and a bit dry. Not your traditional ipa.

Can pours gold with foamy white head. Pine, citrus flavors. Cloying sweet, thick malt body. Quite bitter. Way too sweet for me.

Nik925 (635) - California, USA - FEB 17, 2012
Tap- abused hops, stripped of all their bitterness with little hop flavor left behind. Malt is thin and metallic. Some citrus makes it through the stripping of the hops, but not much. Pretty much single bitter note over poor malt.

rayy (11) - Ohio, USA - FEB 13, 2012
From a can dated 12/21/11. Medium-Hoppy (piney) aroma, gold color, brilliantly clear. White head dissipates pretty quickly. Taste is sweetish, bitterness there but not overwhelming. Aromatic Hoppiness on the finish (mostly pine, a little citrus).

Can from Green’s Bev’s in Decatur, GA. Pours a clear orange with a creamy white head. Nose is caramel, orange, orange juice, honey, and light citrus hops. Flavor is similar with malt up front, orange and sweetness and more citrus in the mid followed by earthy citrus and citrus pith in the finish. Very orange-y IPA.
