Feb 12, 2007 Updated: Feb 13, 2007Had on tap at the Sunspot in Knoxville, TN. Poured to an amber color with off-white head that lingered thru-half-glass and left okay lacing. Aroma was mostly floral, with hints of citrus fruit. Floral and grassy hop flavor was present but not dominant. Mouthfeel was not as bitter as tangy as I expect in an IPA, and the finish was dry and only slightly bitter.
Not bad, but not a great IPA by any means.

Jan 25, 2007 An OK, if not exceptional, IPA. Good hoppy flavor, quite a bit of bitterness.

Jan 4, 2007 Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with a light touch of hops. The flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, but also light notes of hops. A low key IPA.

Dec 19, 2006 Bottle from Beer_Hawk; Nose of hops, but not real heavy; Color is medium brown with a vert small beige head; flavor has some light caramel and mild hop bitterness. Not as hoppy as several pale ales I’ve recently rated!
Pretty color but not much hoppiness for an IPA!

Dec 15, 2006 Thanks to Suttree for this beer. It has a powerful hop aroma and one of the darkest IPAs I have had. Not much head on the low side for carbonation. Smooth palate, and mildly bitter flavor of hops. Not especially heavy or overly flavorful, but a solid session IPA. I do have a very light hop burn.

Dec 10, 2006 12 oz bottle courtesy of Santa. Slightly cloudy, copper colored pour. Foamy light tan head. Floral citrusy hops and slighty musty nose. Also a little maltiness. Light smooth mouthful with active carbonation. Hops are present in the flavor, but not enough for an IPA. Slight bitter finish.

Nov 25, 2006 draft at Four Corners, Chapel Hill. Dark amber wit small off-white head. Bitter aroma and flavor with minimal flavor and texture. Light malt sweetness to balance out bitterness from hops. Medium bodied. I like my hops to taste fresher.

Nov 16, 2006 Dark amber color with a dark beige head. Aroma is somewhat subdued, but hops, grass and citrus are present. I’d prefer a stronger hop presence, but this is still a solid, drinkable IPA.
