| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 9, 2009 Mildy hazed amber with a two finger beige cap eliminating into a small layer and chaotic waves of lace in its wake. Aroma of citrus, oranges, caramel, malt and hints of toffee and perhaps pine. Taste of resinous hops, grapefruit, caramel with a nice bittersweet finish that turns to bitter after a time. Overall a nice IPA with a good sense of balance and flavor. doboy (206), Morehead City, North Carolina, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 2, 2009 Compliments of Uncle Steve! Pours a dark copper color with a nice head that retains nicely, sort of an off white color. Aroma is mild but sweet and refreshing. taste is malt and hops with the hops punching through. Mouthfeel is OK. Back side is good but doesn’t jump out like other IPA’s. A good session beer. CelticBrew (715), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 28, 2009 Another fine beer gift from Steve-O, Beer Magician Extraordinaire. Poured from 12 oz bottle, a little hazy, medium amber. Forms nice head of foam, aroma of hops, malts and flowers. Flavour of a malty character, with a accented hop lingering. Reminds me of an English type IPA, perhaps a bit more hopped up, clean and refreshing beer. Drinkable and sessionable brew. radiomgb (2074), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 20, 2009 Orange, cloudy, thin off white head, light lacing.
Aroma is very juicy, hoppy, soapy, some spice, pink grapefruit, oranges.
Flavour is chewy, rich, moderate sweetness and bitterness, citrus hops, caramel malts.
Bitter mouthfeel, medium body, high carbonation.
Finishes dry, bitter, citrus.
Getting old as the hops are muted and slightly cardboardish. Still a bit chewy.
355ml bottle obtained in a trade with piscator34, thanks Kris.
