22 oz bottle from BottleTrek.com. Pours amber with a medium head that dissipates fairly quickly. Aroma is floral, but missing the mark from what I expect from an IPA. No hop punch. Flavor is piney, floral, and some mild citrus undertones. Hoppy finish.

Jun 24, 2008 Pours a dark, slightly red amber color with a medium frothy white head. Aroma is oranges and apricots, honey, and of course, hops. The hops smell fresh enough, but there is a bit of a stinky earthy smell is the background as well. The flavor is very rich with molasses and apricot. Not much citrus in the flavor. Some bitter hops in the aftertaste. Medium bodied, creamy mouthfeel. Not bad, but it’s a bit too rich for me.

Jun 18, 2008 No date on this bottle. Pours dark amber with a decent off-white head. Good amount of lacing. Aroma was pretty minimal for a fresh hop brew. Good piney hops with lots of sweet roasted malts. A bit earthy overall. Would like to try a fresher example.

May 25, 2008 Pours a clear brown with a tanned head. Quite sour (hoppy). Lots of bittering hops. Aromas of pine and resin. Hint of earth. Harsh bitter finish. Not-so-good hopsprofile and too hoppy.
