3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 tobias (155) - Raleigh, North Carolina, USA - JUN 17, 2005
12 oz bottle: pours a light copper color with a white head. aroma is slightly malty but mostly piney earthy hops with some citrus. upfront flavor od unboiled malt changing to a piney earty bitterness. hints of citrus. this to me is like a combo of and english and american ipa. nothing special here. i tend to like more intense ipas line 60 min.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 EHouse (102) - Boston, Massachusetts, USA - SEP 7, 2011
Pours a clear hazelnut with a nice off white head. Huge grapefruit aroma o’ hops. This is one of the better IPA’s I’ve had because it is perfectly balanced and not overly bitter. A creamy mouthfeel of roasty malt and a bit of hoppy pine. Finish is smooth with the slightest lingering of citric bitterness.

Golden in color with a slight white head. Fruity aroma with a hoppy taste good for an IPA i must say not too overpowering. Nice hint of malt as well...Good beer

My daily IPA. Smooth, moderate level of hops for an IPA. Not too sweet and not too bitter. Slightly citrusy, very refreshing.

Thin white head. Golden color. Nice hoppiness, not bad aroma. I know this beer is nothing very special but is still very enjoyable. One of the few on my permanent buy list.
