3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle thanks to Robert at Stateline. Poured a bright copper color with a nice aroma of hop, and citrus. Taste was an ordinary IPA but not as much hop kick as I enjoy. Very Drinkable.

Pours clear amber-gold, with a thin white head, fine lacing. Strong pine aroma, with some grass, dough and caramel underneath. Medium body, velvety, lightly dry. The malt flavors are subtle, caramel, white-bread, turning into citrus and a sweet grapefruit finish. Mild bitter pine-resin aftertaste. Very drinkable.

UPDATED: JAN 31, 2009 A pretty distinct IPA. I had about a dozen while bowling the other night, and they were definitely a lot nicer than the Manny’s my friends were drinking (nothing against Manny’s, I’ve just had it a ton). Typical hoppy taste but with a cirtusy kick. Didn’t see much head, but the waitress was probably letting them sit a few minutes before bringing them over.

Golden yellow pour with an off white pour. Nice malty aroma with some spicy hops. Taste is a good malt backbone with a good spicy hop balance. Nice hop aftertaste.

Pours a dark copper gold win a white head and some good lady streaks as it goes down the glass. Aroma is some caramel malt presiding over some floral and citrus hops. Neither really dominates, but the hops aren’t particularly strong. Taste is much the same with a bit off sweetness balanced out some bitterness. Lift to medium body with good carbonation. Drinks pretty well, but not one of the better IPAs we picked up on our West Coast trip.

Bomber. intriguing smell with a hint of citrus. Body is a lighter golden brown. A smooth beer with not very much bite; fairly drinkable.

Reminds me a lot of bridgeport ipa. Floral citrus hops throughout without much sweetness up front. Crisp and dry in the finish with a slight pine resin aftertaste. Pours clear amber with a soft white head.

Pleasantly surprised, Poured on tap into a standard pint glass. Poured a bubbly sun yellow. Nose was of basic PNW hops. Taste was nice, slightly sweet but simple body, Tasted like it was just crystal 40 and carapils and then a handfull of hops. For a basic IPA its not too bad.
