3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sample for the Augusta beer fest. Poured a hazy yellow orange color with a smaller white head. Aroma was citrus, pines and hops. Wasn’t very hoppy. Metallic, earthy and pines in the flavor. Malts and caramel in the backbone. Well balanced, kind of watery. Ok for the style.

0.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
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.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Aroma is bread, caramel malts and citrus hops. The flavor is bread/caramel malts, fruit and a medium hoppy, bitter finish.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
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)
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
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.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Hazed golden pour with white head. Light corn like aroma with light perfumy hops Light sweet malt with a medium perfumy bitter. Light/medium body with fizzy carbonation.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
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.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
From bottle to tulip. Hazy orange color. Not much aroma. subdued bitter hoppy flavor. Ok.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 9/20
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.
