UPDATED: APR 28, 2007 Poured a nice amber color, darker than I thought it would be. Has a light citrus taste to it. Very good.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured a pale amber color. Nose mostly of hops, with some sweet caramel and fruit. Medium body, and not excessively bitter. An easy-drinking IPA....especially in great quantity. My head is still thumping from the 8 of these I drank last night. Still got 4 left!

light citrus flavor, simple gold color, i enjoyed this beer because of its simplicity and smooth hops
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a lightly hazed golden color, with an inch or so of white foam. Effervescent carbonation. Decent head retention, moderate webby lacing. Floral and citrus hops in the aroma. Nice.
Two impressions - tangy bitter hops, and dry maltiness. The first couple sips of my first bottle, I wondered if this wasn’t just another ‘hop tea’ IPA. But I soon noted the complexity. First was the hops, tangy, fresh and juicy, and bitter citrus - mainly grapefruit, but also a little lemon. Toss a touch of pine needle in there too. Then the malt - very dry toasted malt and some biscuit malt gave it an almost British backbone. A little earthy spiciness in the finish, reminiscent of rye.
Medium-light body (I think the dryness makes it seem a little lighter than it really is), good carbonation, very refreshing. Fairly clean aftertaste.

(bottle) Good tasting IPA. Taste like sweet apple with a perfect bitter ending. Has a strong citrus smell. All in all, pretty tasty beer.

Draught at Richmond Arms, Houston
Beautiful amber color. Delicate hoppy aroma. Good flavor, not extreme, malt with fruity hops. Refreshing. Playing darts, in Houston, on Christmas night… strange experience.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Porued a murkey golden color. Aroma of citrus and hops is very present. Taste of orange and a bite of bittering hops at the end.
