3.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 BrewBoxer (775) - Brooklyn, USA - NOV 30, 2011
Bottle. Ive had this many times without rating it and its always been great and reminded me of an IPA until now. Either its a different batch or my palate has changed. Nonetheless, a pretty beer with lots of lace on the glass, not overpowering with hops. Pretty balanced and nice to drink
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 magdalar (292) - Zurich, SWITZERLAND - NOV 30, 2011
12oz bottle.
Pours a cloudy orange, with a thick white head.
Smells mildly of citrus and flowery hops, but also a bit of "basement funk".
Tastes of grass and malt, with a medium bitteness.
Carbonation medium; medium body; finishes dry.
An overall pretty bland beer.

Hop aroma, moderate head, light golden color. Taste is clean maltiness with significant hop bitterness. A clean, crisp, refreshing pale ale. Although I am not a big pale ale fan, this is one I would go for when I wanted that style.

T: very bitter but not overpoweringly so.
Pa: carbonated, but not much complexity.
O: I thought it was decent, but nothing special.
3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 ElDesmadre (383) - Mikołów, POLAND - NOV 28, 2011
Bottle. Hazy golden with a beautiful, creamy head. Lovely hoppy aroma of mango, pine and citrus, some slightly grainy malt, honey, vaguely also herbs and red grapes. The taste is quite a letdown given the aroma. The body is a bit too watery, the flavour is a bit malty, more fruity-hoppy but could be more aromatic, and the bitterness is a bit harsh and lacking in depth. The aftertaste is a very pleasant mix of citrus and honey. Quite good but smells way better than it tastes.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 bigabe (166) - California, USA - NOV 22, 2011
Just a wonderful beer. Not a real strong aroma, but it’s a beautiful golden blonde and leaves nice lacing in the glass. And yeah... it tastes great. Lots of fresh, citrusy hops, grapefruit, grass, and a little bit of a biscuty flavor on the finish. This beer is historically significant, and it’s damn good.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 OmegaX (383) - Florida, USA - NOV 21, 2011
Light amber colored beer. Clear and bubbly. Nice piney, citrusy nose that is rich in hops. Some slight malt and water hose qualities. Taste is nice and semi-dry with a citrusy flavor. Good stuff and very refreshing. Great with turkey sandwiches.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 burg326 (602) - Florida, USA - NOV 14, 2011
12 ounce bottle that pours an amber color with aromas of citrus, grass, and a touch of bready malt. Flavor is much the same with some caramel coming through.
