ditmier (1023), Boise, Idaho, USA Dec 14, 2008 208 Bottle - Pours a hazy straw yellow with a head and color that reminds me of a recently used urinal...aroma is bright citrus and hay with a slightly fruity scent...flavor is confused...is it a Pale or an IPA??...it says both on the label...flavour is tropical fruit, citrus and resinous hops...I didnt like this at first but it grew on me...it is a fruity pale with a nicely bittered finish...fun... dm9831 (1167), Monee, Illinois, USA Dec 6, 2008 bottle from binnys beverage depot, orland park. hazy apricot color, no head, tiny off white bubbles around rim. aroma of creamy hoppy grapefruit, but pretty mild. flavor is also creamy grapefruit, but amazingly mild. the slightest hint of bitter hops possible. also a hint of caramel. medium bodied, mildly bitter finish. perhaps i am too rough on this ipa for its mildness, because i like it the more i drink it. or maybe i just get more drunk. cheers. joe19612 (673), camberley, Surrey, England Dec 5, 2008 Bottle fom Tesco. A hazy blond beer with a small head. Plenty of hops in the aroma, the taste was a very citrus nice bitter finish. I did like this beer, and will go and get some more. nbutler11 (731), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Dec 3, 2008 Pours like a CapriSun from the bottle. Tastes of water and mildly bitter hops. This is the weak sauce. Sorry. Suttree (2701), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Dec 1, 2008 Cloudy gold, loose white head. Woody, herbal, spruce-like aroma. Flavor also has a lot of spruce notes, mixed with woods and herbs. Nice pine bitterness in the finish. Some dry, winey notes, as well. bobinlondon (786), Harrow, Greater London, England Nov 30, 2008 Bottle fom Tescos. Blond with white head. Strong hoppy aroma. Good citric hop flavour with earthy bite. My kind of beer. finol (475), Nacka (Stockholm), Sweden Nov 29, 2008 Bottle from Systembolaget
A small disapering head, some yeast floats on top of the beer. A bit hazy liquid.
A nice "every day IPA", nothing spectacular.
gary07734 (391), Tyne & Wear, England Nov 20, 2008 Copper lager-like pour, good frothy head. Smell is good, fruity, cherry, almonds, tons of hops. Taste is very hoppy, straw/wheat and strawberries, grass. Unfortunately the finish is extremely harsh bitter and metallic, rather ruins the beer. I like IPAs but this is overly bitter.
