dmac (799), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Apr 27, 2008 12 oz bottle given to me by a friend that I converted to craft beer. Pours a great looking orange with a large pillowy creamy head, real impressive. Aroma is tons of hops, piney resin, grapefruit rind, and smoothed out with some grainy malts. Medium to full bodied with a strong dose of carbonation, creamy mouthfeel and a slightly bitter finish. Flavor of fresh hops, caramel, floral hops, bitter citrus and slight grain. Really well done IPA, bordering on IIPA territory. This beer is called Loose Cannon but after drinking a few of these I am finding that my pants are no longer that loose, damn irony.
scotch4281 (20), Hollywood, Florida, USA Jul 26, 2008 If you like hoppy beer than this is the beer for you! Definitely a good IPA without that overwhelming grapefruit bite. Sampled at Florida Beer Fest. JesseM (345), Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Jul 26, 2008 12 oz. bottle given to me by Jan Primus (thanks again Jan!). Pours a nice deep golden with an orange tinge to it, and a medium white head. Aroma is perfect, sublte yet incredibly forward, floral and piney hopness, great stuff. Flavour is delicious! Perfect bitterness and hop character, and delicate sweetness from the solid caramel malt body. This stuff is awesome! Aftertaste is a perfectly balanced blend of the whole package. This is the best balanced IPA I’ve ever had. Awesome stuff. My favourite IPA I’ve had so far, maybe because I have a thing for Munich malts. darrylgh (6), Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Jul 25, 2008 On Tap, wow what a hop BANG!!! Very nice hop aroma with a citrus note. Pours nice copper color with a nice whit head. Great lace throughout the whole beer. This is by far one of the best IPA’s I have had. It hits you at first with hops than smoothes out with a nice bitter ending. They should call this loaded cannon because it is loaded with HOPS!!! Russo (434), Campinas, Brazil Jul 22, 2008 Bottled @Marty’s Newton, MA. Golden color like a scotch, a slim but persistent cramy white head. Aroma is complex, sweety, floral and fruity, notes of apricot, citrus. Flavor is sweet, spicy and notes of alcohol. Mouth feel is spicy and bitter. Very good beer with a nice price @ Marty’s. THis place is the beer Paradise! BeerFanDan17 (331), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Jul 21, 2008 Very tasty and hoppy IPA. Crisp and spicy. Sampled at the St. Pete Florida Craft Beer Fest.
