kdm1984 (139) - Missouri, USA - MAY 4, 2012
UPDATED: MAY 25, 2012 Sour, vomity grain flavor, vile herbal funk. Blecch. Sampled this at a fest and nearly spit it out. Worst IPA I’ve ever had. An embarrassment to us craft beer geeks in the state of Missouri.

wlajwl (1797) - Quad Cities, Iowa, USA - APR 27, 2012
Aroma is bread, caramel malts and citrus hops. The flavor is bread/caramel malts, fruit and a medium hoppy, bitter finish.

unclemattie (3351) - Georgia, USA - APR 23, 2012
12oz bottle. Orange color, white head. Aroma of floral hops, pine sol, light pale malts. Earthy hop bitterness, not much malt. Seems to be an older /aged bottle. Maybe a fresh one would be better. (3314)

Onslow (711) - Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA - MAR 18, 2012
Pour from a 12 oz bottle. Light amber brew with off white head. Light aroma of floral and pine hops. Taste is mild, light grain with a modest hoppy finish. Rather light and weak for an IPA.

Frank (2059) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - FEB 25, 2012
This pours a cloudy orange color w/ a thin white head of fine bubbles. Nose is sort of tutt-fruity hops w/ a bit of pine. A bit sweet and slightly sticky but balanced by earthy hops. Not a bad beer but not really fresh or vibrant tasting, which is what I want out of an IPA.

From bottle to tulip. Hazy orange color. Not much aroma. subdued bitter hoppy flavor. Ok.

Jayklew (11) - West Chester, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 13, 2012
12oz bottle. Tulip glass. Very little aroma. Some floral and citrus notes. Nothing stands out. Fairly weak bouquet. Pours orange. Hazy. 2 fingers head. Lasting, dissipates slowly. Not an inviting appearance. Taste is bitter. Some light citrus notes. Nothing stands out. Mouthfeel is typical for an IPA. Overall, not worth buying again.
