BREWMUSKCLES (794), WEEHAWKEN, New Jersey, USA Jun 21, 2007 wow. that is a really nice IPA. i love the pine needle taste and the citrus character. seems close to perfect as i have ever tasted. the carbonation is highly moderate and the mouthfeel is moderate. this brings out a refreshing characteristic that is expert balance. no hint of alcohol. lightly malted which we hop heads don’t mind that much. mild woody feel and taste.

Pours amber with long lasting head with a strong hop aroma. Flavors include grapefruit and sweet malt. oh6gdx (6334), Vaasa, Finland Sep 30, 2008 Bottled@SBWF2008. Amber colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is hops, grass, fruits and some mild wooden notes. Flavour is fruity and flowery hops along with some wooden and nectary notes. Also some mild grainyness in the finish. hirigalzkar (46), Stockholm, Sweden Sep 28, 2008 Sample @ Stockholm Beer Festival 2008. Bitter grapefruit dominates the aroma aswell as the flavor. Indulgence (123), Ajo, Arizona, USA Sep 26, 2008 A simple brew with lots of hop bitterness, but well constructed from that stand point. It is a pretty singular bitter brew, a lot of hop bittering on the finish, some malts but hardly noticeable. Amber in color, with a strong lacing, clean palate, and bittery asparin like finish. bellmyer (13), EAST MOLINE, Illinois, USA Sep 25, 2008 Bottle from the Liquor Box. Good aroma, smells of fruity hops. Color is a surprisingly clear orange with lots of carbonation. Nice head, good lacing. Flavor is mostly hops, and some sweet malts. Mouthfeel is also solid, and it leaves a nice coating that you can taste afterwards. 7% is well hidden and it’s a solid brew.
