12oz bottle from Willow Bend Liquors in Lutz, FL. Pours a cloudy amber with a very thin white head. Aroma is alot of piney hops. Flavor is a good bitter pinesap, not overpowering. Smooth, medium mouthfeel. This is a very solid IPA...I could drink alot of these...under-rated in my opinion.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a moderately sized, white frothy head. Lacing is average. Aromas of citrus, grapefruit, and pine dominate very well. Palate is really smooth with a sticky finish. Flavors of pine and grapefruit, but this is a good IPA.

citrusy yellow head, lacey brown body, strong alc. flavor sweet, syrupy, barley wine-ish, sprucey and well roasted not unlike a deliciouse sandwich eaten in haste and deeply regreted because of a scraped throat

Bottle. Orange color, small white head. Bitter hoppy, grassy aroma with some creamy notes. Quite bitter hoppy, grassy and metallic flavor, floral, some perfume, and some fruits bringing balance to the beer.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 jerc (5580) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 4, 2008
2008-02-01. Bottle. Orange copper body, small foamy white head. (3+) Bit citrusy orange aroma, mild alcohol. (7+) Similar orange citrus in the flavour, dry malt. Alcohol mutes the hops a touch in the flavour. Smooth average palate. (3+) Very drinkable IPA, but I had hoped for a more assertive flavour based on the first impressions of the aroma, still rather nice.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 SpringsLicker (2538) - Tennessee, USA - OCT 17, 2006
Organic IPA.
Seems to be bottle conditined.
Medium orange/amber with an averge sized, sticky white head.
Caramel and apricot orange aroma.
The sweetness is very subdued and what there is quickly turns to a long smooth dryness that’s not too bitter. Very drinkable and a bit different. Mine was a little flat. A better carbonation would improve the mouthfeel some.
Thanks to droopy49 for sending this one!

Amber in color, clear with a thin head. Nice hops cascade aroma and floral with a bite of fruit. Nice Malt backing citrus flavors and cascade hops flavors come out nicely. Very good beer.

Pours bright orange with mostly receding off-white head. Aroma of alcohol and orange, higher alcohols. Taste is orange, grapefruit and mango. Mouthfeel is full bodied with lively carbonation. Nice and easy drinking.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Hopgeek (90) - San Diego, California, USA - AUG 31, 2005
22oz bottle, reads certified organic.
It presents itself as a deep copper with a firm off-white head, leaves a bit of belgian lace on the glass. Smells of rich caramel with light pine and citrus. Flavor opens up slightly bitter, caramel appears, lots of pine and slight grapefruit hoppyness. Medium to light on the palate and finishes dry. This is a pretty solid IPA, doesn’t really stand up against the big boys, but it is by no means a bad beer. I would like to sample this fresh on tap sometime.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 SoLan (1550) - Florida, USA - MAY 18, 2006
Clear amber/light brown. Modest, frothy, tan head. Nose of pine resin, starbursts, venom, strong malt with subtle caramel. Same flavors with some herbal/anise notes added and a bit of chai in the finish. Easy drinking, medium, balanced body. Solid IPA. Underrated.
