My 100th brew review! I learned a lot about beer styles, regional micro brewing; but mostly about taste. Sweet, well hopped and citrusy nose. Pours golden yellow with a foamy white head. Good carbonation. Sweet hoppy, (did I say sweet?) flavor. Bitter long dry ending. Somewhat suripy mouth feel. Not as crisp as I’d imagine. This is defiantly an ale. I love IPAs almost as much as I like porters and stouts. I like this IPA because of its balance of character in hoppiness, bitter dry ending and palate.

does not count  Oct 3, 2008 This is just a good, solid beer. Pours a nice clear copper color with a two-finger head. Picked up a nice amount of hops mixed with pine. Flavors of orange citrus and a nice hoppy finish with medium carbonation. This beer is not earth-shattering but its quality lies in its being so well balanced. Extremely drinkable and can hardly notice the 9.2% ABV. Definitely getting this again.

Sep 27, 2008 Bottle, courtesy Tony at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours a hazy mango color, with a fizzy white head, wet lacing. Aromas of dried fruits, caramel, smooth hops. Flavor is caramel, some banana, big on hops. Crisp, smooth, and this one feels slightly aged. Still decent to drink though.

Sep 27, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a clear amber with an off-white head which lingered to create lacing. The smell is big on pine and citrus hops. Taste is pine and citrus hops with some caramel and biscuit hops. Mouthfeel is medium and sweet with a crisp hop bite and bitter aftertaste. Very nice!
