Jun 18, 2008 An interesting IPA, enjoyed at the Smokehouse lotion. Chewy, with the orange citrus unknown additive. A almost there IPA. I think the IBU was 40-50 though and not the unoffical 0-70. Citrus colour, white white thin head and lace. An The C-hop citrus flavour was well drinkable.

Mar 17, 2008 Hazy coppery pour with a small head and some lacing. A little floral in the nose. Decent mouthfeel. Well balanced hopping with a little malt. citrus and floral hops - but neither overwhelms. A bit of caramel to even it out. Perhaps not a classic strong American IPA - but a very solid beer and very drinkable.

Mar 4, 2008 Draft at Alehouse #2. Poured hazy copper color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate to heavy sour citrus and floral aroma. Medium body with a sticky texture. Medium bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Solid IPA.

Feb 24, 2008 Growler via Mys Swap 3.0 (Thanks puddintane!) She pours a hazy amber with a large fluffy head. Nose is floral/citrus hops. Taste is quite interesting. The hops are what this is all about, and the profile is floral, herbal, spicy, earthy and citrusy. i would guess they use at least 4 or 5 different hops. I even detect some mint, lemongrass, and ginger. The body is light/medium, carbonation is just right.

Feb 18, 2008 On tap. Pours coppery with a smallish off white head. Aroma is grapefruit, floral hops. Flavor is light malts, heavy citrus, floral hops. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finished bitter. Mediocre at best, just like every other IPA recently from Barley’s
