Nejhleader (800), Hummelstown, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 13, 2008 pretty standard IPA, i wouldn’t call it salvation for hop heads, not at all. body seemed thin too.
sebletitje (530), Tampa, Florida, USA Nov 19, 2008 Pours golden, white head.
Aroma is fruity.
Taste, bitter hops, malty with light caramel notes, piney and some fruit touch.
Not a bad IPA, but the aftertaste is rather weak and watery.
I wa shoping fro something much better for a Midwest IPA, nicer and smoother hops with the nicer balance. Goose Island comes to mind. HonkeyBra (472), Lemont, Illinois, USA Nov 19, 2008 Oh man. Girlfriend bought this one. Don’t be jealous that I get to choke down a few of these. Pours a dark orange with a thin, white head. Butterscotch aroma. Flavor is lightly bitter, but mostly fruity. Metallic. Just really isn’t that must of an IPA. jebb12 (12), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA Oct 22, 2008 This beer was given to me as a leftover from a party and boy was I in for a surprise. The aroma was a bouquet of verdant sunny fields in mid summer. The initial sip of bitter acidity wasn’t a taste as much as a bursting of flavor which transformed with a swallow and a breathe into a delicious delicate impression of less intense bitter and a tiny hint of sweetness, everything a Pale Ale should be. aaaaaaaaaah (20), Dearborn, Michigan, USA Oct 22, 2008 Pours a large creamy white head with excellent lacing. The body hue is dehydrated piss yellow. Zero malt aroma. Smells like a Belgium beer with hints of raisin, white grapes, apples and smells like champagne. The initial flavor is heavy mild bitter that is slightly strong. Middle flavor of sweet apple, champaign dry like, slightly spicy with a mellow sweet malt. It finises with the lingering initial bitter taste, but is a much smoother easy finish. No hints of alcohol. The body is medium with a dry texture and lively carbonation. Multiple flavors in this beer. daknole (1008), Plantation, Florida, USA Oct 1, 2008 Bottle from strykzone. Pours an amberish/gold color with a medium sized whitish head. Aromas of malt, honey, cider and some mild hops. Flavor is sweet and lacks any big IPA punch. It isn’t a horrible beer, just not a good representation of the style.
