3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20Draft. Poured copper with a thick white head. Citrus aroma up front with some pine coming through as well. Great malt and hop balance with a nice bitterness on the finish. Very drinkable.

Thanks Steve! Pours a hazy dark amber red with a thin white head. Aroma of citrus and pine with some added malt. Taste is very bitter, lots of pine, grapefruit and malt at the end. Really nice and perfect out of the can while manning the BBQ.

12 oz. can shared at Dave’s tasting. Woot, my first DC rating! Pours an amber orange with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma of grapefruit and pine. The flavor is mostly grapefruit pith with a weak malt base. A bit too harsh on the palate for me.

12oz can----> NB globe. Pours an amber orange with a small thick head and clingy lace. Aroma is very piney with a hint of onion. Taste is bitter grapefruit and heavy malt (and onions). Nice medium palate with good carb. A little too malty for my IPA likings, but not bad. Extra points for floaties.

UPDATED: MAY 12, 2013 On draft at the brewery, aroma is normal hop goodness, taste is a balanced IPA, goodie

The appearance and aroma are standard IPA stuff; cloudy copper color, big foamy head, and a lot of pine and floral hops in the aroma. The flavor is outstanding. The hops hit first and hit hard, and at the finish there is a really rich, smooth, buttery malt that gives this thing outstanding balance. Compares favorably to Bells Two Hearted and the better Hoppin’ Frog IPAs.

12oz can. Looks amber in color. Aroma of citrusy and pine hops, plus a decent amount of pale and caramel malts. Flavor the same, with a nice hoppy bitterness. Average texture. A pretty good IPA.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 19/20
Pleasurably soapy and sweet aroma of marshmallow peeps, orange peel, orange blossoms, and grapefruit. Clear amber, thick yellow head, nice lacing. Honey, thistle, and lemongrass flavor. Bubblegum present, alcohol is not. Fantastic balance, dynamic. This is really awesome.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 17/20
Hazy amber pour strong piney hop aroma. Fizzy and not too heavy. Probably the best canned ipa I’ve ever had.

Thanks to jcartamdg for sharing this one. Cheers, Jason! Pours a hazy amber-copper with a white head. Beautiful color for an IPA. Nose is a nice blend of big caramel, some piney hops, some grassy bitterness, and some spices and almost an oniony presence: Summit hops, maybe? Flavor is caramel, onion, assertive pine hops, and some lingering bitterness into the finish. Medium in body and nice overall.
