3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Light hops with fruity notes in the aroma. Taste is very similar to the aroma. Really smooth finish, a nice IPA
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pretty average IPA, but drinkable and enjoyable for summer nonetheless. A little watery, could use some backbone for a bit more taste. Average hops, all in all not bad.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a mostly clear golden colored body with a thin, frothy, white head that dissipates slowly and leaves a light lacing. Aroma is lighter with some floral fruits, a touch of caramel, and a light orange pine. Flavor is pretty citrusy up front with a slightly sweet orange pine and some floral fruits. A light caramel in the middle before the sweet pines and florals come in a bit more to dry this while still finishing a touch sweet with a moderate bitterness. Fairly lengthy aftertaste following a medium body and a moderate carbonation. Overall, an ok IPA. Solid flavor with a nice mix of floral fruits and citruses. Nothing special, but enjoyable.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
Slightly hazy yellow color with white head that sticks around. Very nice citrus hops on the nose but tastes like earthy hops. Could drink all day
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap. Dry dark herbal lemon grass. Rustic hay, fresh cut grass, cucumber. Toast, burnt cracker melon malts. Wheat not so noticible. quite bitter.

Cask at Get Real NY - Light citrusy nose. plenty of fruits and some spicey hops in the finish. Decent.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask at GBBF 2010. A hazy golden beer with an orangey head. The aroma has lovely notes of hops - like freshly harvested Magnum lending it notes of spices and grapefruit. The flavor is sweet malty with a high level of alfa acids and hence strong notes of the hops. I believe I’d like it better kegged than cask - lack a sparkle.

floral, citrus, golden, clear, minimal head, lightly bitter, average carbonation, not bad, not great, did the trick sitting in the Cambridge Brewing beer garden.......then went for the big boy Red God.....much better
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cask at Get Real NY 2011. Hazy amber-gold pour. The nose is softly orangey. A little bit of light herbal fruitiness. Softly spicy with assertive bitterness. It’s decent - if decidedly by the numbers IPA.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured with an orangey huge, fairly weak initial head. The aroma was caramel, grainy, cirtus, pine. The flavor followed, some yeast and herbal notes in there, a semi-assertive bitterness to the finish, but just not a wow or exciting IPA. Pretty average run of the mill, but still enjoyable to drink in the big scheme of beer as an IPA fan. But, most of us do take those training wheels off one day.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask at Get Real NY. Gold. Hoppy with caramel and a bit of malt. Some floral aromas. Taste is hoppy, fairly bitter.
