DenverLogan (421), Oceanside, California, USA Feb 22, 2008 Golden ale...small head. Aroma of malts and citrus. Midwest malts and Northwest hops make up this IPA. Some grapefruit hop and citrus notes but not a big west coast monster by any stretch, but tasty. On tap at brewery Jan 07’.
Ibrew2or3 (1900), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA Nov 1, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Pours clear copper with off white head and cobweb lacing. The aroma is malty first with moderate roasted malts, bread and malt sweetness followed by mild and muted citrus to pine hops. The taste has an initial pulse of citrus to grassy hops before a wave of malt sweetness quickly catches on and works to take over the flavor. By midway the citrus grapefruit hop bitterness builds and takes over the experience for a while. The hops dwindle into the finish as malty sweetness comes to the surface again to take this beer to closure. presario (2497), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Sep 12, 2008 On tap at Abbey. Dark amber. Frothy pour. Nice light grapefruit aroma. Malty body, grainy and chewy with a touch or wort. Decent hop level. Malt sweetness makes for a heavier body. Trends to wards heavy, raw and hoppy.

Oakes (7030), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Apr 29, 2008 Brick amber colour. Has a tropical fruit hoppiness in the nose with a light toasty malt character. Blueberry and cantaloupe taste with moderate bitterness and a malt character mixing caramel and toastiness. Tmoney99 (3740), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Apr 9, 2008 Draft at Abbey. Poured hazy copper color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate sour citrus spruce aroma. Medium body with a slick texture. Medium bitter flavor with a medium balanced finish of moderate duration. This is a good beer.
