Sep 15, 2009 Draft: Apple and grain aroma. Clear golden with a medium white head. Flavor of apple core. generic bitter finish. Moer character than I would expect from a bitter, but a far cry from an IPA.

Sep 14, 2009 Taste and aroma are pretty nice with decent hops, but the aftertaste is so offensive that it killed it for me.

Sep 4, 2009 Golden amber with white head. Floral, citrus, and sweet malt aromas. Hop citrus and mild malt honey-caramel flavours. Balanced, refreshing, and sessionable ale.

Sep 2, 2009 Bottle. Lots of malt in the aroma with some hops, but smells more of a bitter/amber to me. Floral hops are noticeable and caramel malt. Flavor is grassy and malty...not what I would call a very good IPA...but also not horrible either. Just ok.

Sep 1, 2009 Location: 500 ml bottle from State Line, 9/1/09
Aroma: Mellow floral hops, caramel malts, some mild fruit, and just a touch of soapiness that keeps it from being better
Appearance: Nice hazy orange color, fizzy white head, spotty lacing
Flavor: Hop bitterness throughout, with some caramel malts in the backing, an odd herbal quality as well, grassy finish
Palate: Medium body, oily, fizzy
Overall Impression:
I thought this beer was alright, but I just found it to be a touch off, the soapiness of the nose bothered me a bit, and found the flavor to be a touch flawed as well. Maybe this wasn’t fresh enough? I don’t know, but although it wasn’t a bad beer by any means, I won’t be running out for this one again.

Aug 25, 2009 strong floral aroma, minimal head. inviting amber color with cream-colored head. medium-hopped IPA - some metal in the taste. harsh palate.

Aug 19, 2009 500 ml bottle. Straw color with rapidly vanishing head. Floral aromas with a slight hoppy smell. Taste is very standard with a nice bitter finish. Good for hot summer days.

Aug 7, 2009 Draft at the Pub. Poured a hazy amber with a thick white head. Aroma is sweet malts and floral hops. Notes of citrus, pine, and caramel stand out. On the palate, it is a bit dry. THe flavor is a bit watered down, not very hoppy at all, but still has a nice bitter finish. Nothing special, but worth trying.
