Nice light amber pour. Aroma is loaded with resin, grapefruit peel, caramel, honey, unripe stone fruit. Flavor follows suit. A nice hop bite. Really a nice combination of hops and just enough malt sweetness to keep this one really drinkable.

Canned beer that I picked up from Bellingers Jet Garage, Grove, nr Wantage, Oxon 16-09-09 consumed the same day This pours for all the world looking like a classic UK bitter with just the right sized white head sitting atop as well. Wonderful hoppy aroma with pine and grapefruit lingering for a long while on the nose and a floral edge to it also. This has a nice initial hoppy sting that is tempered by a very pleasant honey sweetness, really tasty and most enjoyable. A7 A5 F7 P4 Ov 15 3.8

Can thanks to the bosses had at home. Alround rating: Big grassy citrusy bittering hop, fairly peppery and drying, the malt is more pale honey almost than the usual caramalt, but interesting stuff all the same.

2010-07-01. Crisp golden amber body with a nice foamy beige head and lace. 4+ Pleasantly hoppy aroma, mild citrus and resin, mild malt. 7+ Flavour is similar, mild citrus up front, healthy resiny hop core, mild underlying malt is secondary. 7+ Average palate suits it nicely. Just a very solid well made IPA. Yumm! Can at Naked City, Seattle

Can: Pours a nice golden bronze color with a puffy white head and good lacing. The nose is blooming with citrus and pine, ample hops. The malts are a little lighter. Some toastiness in the flavor along with plenty of bitters in the tail. I like the straight to the point west-coast IPA style hoppiness of this one. Easy drinking too for an IPA. I could drink a 6er.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
DLD 2009, thanks to [?]: Poured from the can, this had a light golden body with a thick white head. It had a soft aroma, citrusy hops over sweet pale malt. The flavor began with a toffee/caramel sweetness, soon balanced (or more) by a sturdy PNW hop bitterness. Not bad.
