2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle from Bubbles. Pours copper with an inch of white foam. Leaves some lacing in the glass. The aroma smells skunked to me. Not much on the tongue. Some hop bitterness but not much flavor. Clean finisher. Pretty Bleh!
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Not much to this beer. Thin body with a slight citrus taste. Hops come out in the end but there is no bitterness.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Golden color. Nice pine with mild citrus hopping. Fresh clean citrus, lemon flavor with even pine and citrus bitterness that trails. Light, clean finish. A nice, just easy to drink IPA.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Light amber. Hoppy aroma- rather unusual. Thin head. Kind of watery in substance. Bitter like an IPA should be with a slight sweetness to balance. Drinkable - maybe too drinkable for this style. Needs a little more body.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle - Perfectly clear light amber pour with a thin foamy white head. Love the aroma on this--tons of citrusy hops with some pine mixed in. A little onion. Reminds me a bit of the hop profile on NG Moon Man. A bit of honey sweet malt in the background--yum. Flavor is roughly the same--real clean, citrusy hops and a light sweet malt base to give it a little form. Dusty yeast on the finish, along with some lightly spicy hops. Blown away at the low ratings on this--maybe there’s quality control issues? Tastes more like an APA, but that’s fine with me--I dig it.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Golden color with a thin, foamy white head. Has a piney aroma with a hint of citrus and a taste to match. The flavor is also mildly sweet with a dry finish. A nice representaion of the American IPA style.
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Poured from 12oz bottle, pours a very light clear golden with a thin soapy white head, aroma has a slight hop touch but it seems more musty with notes of skunk, the flavor is pretty much bland and boring with a finish of dirty water, this might be an old bottle or something, there’s nothing really here, pretty disappointed.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Middle-end IPA. It is actually not too bad; nice hoppiness, nice people serving it; not bad.
