| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 29, 2007 A gift from my buddy Ross, thanks man! Pours out a copper colored orange with a light orange and thick head. Aroma is very citrusy and pine, a weird tingle occured in my nose when I smelled this and I enjoyed it. Once you take a sip of this brew, caramel and biscuit flavors come out due to the malts as well as a touch of brown sugar. Hold on though, because soon after your pallate takes a smack of piney hops in this roller coaster of a beer. Not the best IIPA I’ve had but I would certainly have this again if offered. Well done Breckenridge!!!! DeadGuyFrank (347), http://westchesterbeer.com, USA

Very sweet grapefruit notes throughout...my palate and these type of IPAs just do not agree....hop heads rejoice! bigrond (1055), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 24, 2007 on tap at Taco Mac (John’s Creek). deep golden color with minimal head. slight hoppy/apricot aromas (wish the aromas were a bit stronger). medium body, hoppy and full of apricot and some peach. More fruity than your typical IIPA. An excellent brew, but wish the hops came through a bit more... trokini (1027), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 23, 2007 Pours clear orange-gold with a minimal white head. Biscuits, oranges, grapefruit, and caramel in the nose. Smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Sweet grapefruit hops up front that move into a resiny bitterness. A caramel/candy sugar-like sweetness follows, which gets somewhat unpleasant towards the end. Seems to emmulate Lagunitas’ Maximus in the sweetness. I wanted more hop bite, but this was still good.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 20, 2007 Bottle. Pours an orange color with a white head. Plenty of hop smell, grass, pine, straw, oranges, citrus, really good smell actually. Tastes smooth and bitter, easy to drink yet it will put a huge kick on your ass if you drink them too quickly. Pine and resiny flavor loaded with hops, you can almost chew this one. Damn good stuff actually.
