The aroma is very hoppa with a hint of apricot and lemon. The taste is hoppy with a well balanced sweetness. The palate is a bit too thin.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 10, 2008 Pours a transparent bright golden with a wispy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly piny earthy hoppy nose with a touch of sweet pale malts. Body starts with fairly full and pale malty sweet with an earthy resiny hop bitterness before a drier, bittersweet finish. A decent English-style IPA, but could use a more assertive hop character. merlin48 (511), New Tazewell, Tennessee, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 8, 2008 22.4 oz bottle priced at Thirteen bucks in Evansville. Pours a hazy pale yellow body with an ample vanilla head that deposits lots of sticky lace. Aroma is grassy, floral, and earthy hops. Crisp carbonation enlivens the medium body. Taste has a prevailing bitterness that is mostly earthy hops. Grainy and biscuity pale malt offers little sweetness. Some bittersweet lemonrind is the only hint of fruitiness. Earthy bitterness carries into the aftertaste. Not a bad IPA but very overpriced. hopdog (5549), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jun 6, 2008 Updated: Sep 27, 20092009-09-25, draught at Ølbaren, Copenhagen, 9-5-8-5-18=45 Hazy golden color, with medium rocky head. It has a strong grassy and earthy hop aroma, some manure, light fruity hops, light aroma of breadcrumbs too. Good mouthfeel, good malt flavor, light residual sweetness; earthy hops, giving a strong bitterness and some resins too. Quite different from the bottle, smoother, rounder, maltier, less green. On tap it’s a great beer!
2008-04-12, bottle, 8-3-8-5-16=40 Blond color, with a grey-greenish hue like a white wine. It has a very nice aroma: delicate hop, fruity (white grapes), Saaz perfume, and light crispy malt. It has a very good crispy malt flavor, dry, with a hint of cookies, and a very strong bitterness, quality hopping. Excellent.
