Veeve (312), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA Nov 10, 2006 on tap at Mellow Mushroom in Winston Salem. again avery does a nice job at producing a subtly complex, drinkable beer. golden-copper body with a medium white head that leaves thin ringlets of lacing. smells of strong citrus hops and florals. tastes of orange, grapefruit, spice, pine and florals. sunflower seeds. that kind of salty-sweetness. very, very hoppy, but in a good way because the hop taste is more full if that makes sense. bitter and hoppy through the finish. very light palate. a little thin. could be even more carbonated. but very very good.
stchloe (253), Portland, Oregon, USA Dec 3, 2008 A great brewery, and a solid beer. Bitter, well rounded hop. Ends with a dry resin feel/taste. Trev (600), Lakeville, Minnesota, USA Nov 21, 2008 pours a deep gold colour with a large foamy head.
Aroma is caramel and almost cakey sweet malts, citrus, some pine tones. Flavour is crisp malt, grapefruity citrus but more pine hop in the flavour for me. Finishes slightly dry bitter. Very nice. onecrazybreeze (21), , Colorado, USA Nov 20, 2008 On top at the Pearl Street Pub. Pours a darker orange. Smells mainly piney and hoppy. Tastes of columbus hops mostly, very piney. A solid IPA. thornecb (1228), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA Nov 19, 2008 Pours amber into a shaker. Off-white head with excellent retention leaves slight sheets as it recedes to coat surface. Pine and resin aromas. Crisp and well-balanced. Lasting pine and resin finish. Nice one. CaryTheDude (489), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Nov 19, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Yes, hops and citrus. Citrus on the flavor, and awesomeness. Much awesome hops. Excellent IPA.
